BISMARCK, N. D. (KFYR) - There are several different types of severe weather warnings. Watches are usually issued first for the preparation stage, where conditions are favorable for severe weather. A warning is issued when you should take action. Severe storms have been spotted or are indicated on radar. There are a couple of different levels of severe thunderstorm warnings. Normal “base” warnings can be issued, or different tags can be added for stronger storms.

BISMARCK, N.D. (KFYR) - The National Weather Service has two offices in North Dakota, one in Bismarck and one in Grand Forks. These meteorologists issue severe weather warnings. The number of severe thunderstorm and tornado warnings usually ramp up during the summer across North Dakota, with July typically having the most. This is because we need enough heat and humidity for thunderstorms.

BISMARCK, N.D. (KFYR) - Friday’s severe weather outbreak caused a lot of damage across the region. Many experienced strong winds, and numerous tornadoes also touched down. There were two different storms that moved through the area. One was a pair of discrete supercells that formed just outside of Jamestown and moved to the east. The other was the derecho, or straight-line winds, that formed outside of Dickinson and moved to the east as well.

BISMARCK, N.D. (KFYR) - Most of what we know about tornadoes comes from the studies of one man, Dr. Ted Fujita, also known as “Mr. Tornado.” He spent most of his adult life studying severe weather and helped create the scale we now use to rank tornadoes based on their damage. The original “Fujita Scale” or “F-scale” was used until 2007, when tornado ratings switched to the Enhanced Fujita scale. The EF scale compares the damage to a list, including Damage Indicators and the Degree of Damage.
