Severe storms hit the Minnesota area tonight with extreme high winds and large hail around the Clear Lake MN area, which is just north of the Twin Cities metro area on interstate 94.

From the looks of the damage, extreme high speed straight line winds hit the area since all of the damge over a wide area was all blown to the southeast.

This footage includes high winds and hail along with power lines shorting out as a tree branch falls on live power lines. The aftermath footage shows a lot of trees down including trees down on homes in the Clear Lake, MN area.
