| 23:53Z | EF2 | KFSD | SD | Deuel | Clear Lake Muni Arpt | At approximately 6:53 p.m. on June 28, 2025, a tornado touched down in a field about five miles northwest of Clear Lake, just south of an unoccupied farmstead. While no full-time residents lived on the property, the house was still used intermittently as a family cabin. As the tornado approached, it first tore through an expansive shelterbelt, snapping and uprooting numerous trees as it closed in on the property. The tornado then flipped a shipping container used for storage including lawnmowers, grills, and outdoor furniture. A nearby shed was completely destroyed, and an empty concrete stave silo was toppled. When the tornado reached the house, the winds were powerful enough to shift the structure entirely off its century-old foundation. Significant tree damage continued on the north side of the property as the tornado moved through the remaining shelterbelt. From there, the tornado tracked northeast, snapping more trees as it crossed 178th street. It continued north northeast crossing both 177th and 176th streets near Lake Coteau. Eyewitnesses near Lake Coteau reported seeing the tornado as well as damage that included twisted road signs. The tornado lifted around 7:08 p.m., ending a 15-minute path that stretched approximately 3.4 miles. |
| 00:24Z | EF1 | KFSD | MN | Lac Qui Parle | Haydenville | The tornado developed over a field and moved toward a home where it knocked down a couple trees and produced some other tree damage. Four different videos from various locations enabled determination of its track to the east, as it moved over more fields before dissipating. The maximum estimated wind was 90 mph. |
| 00:34Z | EF0 | KFSD | SD | Deuel | Gary | A brief, short lived tornado touched down in an open field. |
| 00:42Z | EF1 | KFSD | MN | Swift | Danvers | A tornado developed just west of a farm and tracked east-southeast, before turning to the southeast and dissipating. At the farm, it damaged outbuildings, taking portions of the roofs and walls. It mangled trees, knocked over three irrigation pivots, and ripped through three turkey barns. Video was provided of the tornado. Photos and drone video of the damage were provided to determine the specific track. The maximum estimated wind was 100 mph. |
| 00:45Z | EF2 | KUDX | SD | Jackson | Kadoka | The tornado touched down 100 yards west of the Highway 73 White|River Bridge. As the tornado moved to the southeast in the river|valley, the first residence that suffered significant damage was|just east of Highway 73, on County Road 29. This home suffered|partial exterior wall collapse, with most of the roof structure|gone. Additionally, mature Cottonwood trees were snapped at|this location. As the tornado continued to move east-southeast|down the river valley, it encountered house number 2, also on|County Road 29. Several outbuildings were destroyed at this|location, along with mature Cottonwood trees that were|snapped and partially debarked. The 3rd residence, located along|County Road 80, or Red Stone Rd, was a new manufactured home that|suffered complete destruction. Two individuals were in the home at|the time and suffered minor injuries. The home was strapped down,|with the straps anchored in concrete. It is estimated the house|rolled 3 times, with the house separating from the frame. The|frame became partially wrapped around the trunk of a fallen|Cottonwood tree. There were numerous mature Cottonwood trees|snapped and partially debarked, as well as uprooted, on this|property. The debris from the house was blown to the north through|northeast toward the White River. The tornado continued moving|east-southeast in the river valley, snapping and debarking mature|Cottonwood trees before it lifted. |
| 01:10Z | EF3 | KFSD | SD | Deuel | Clear Lake | A tornado developed east of Clear Lake, South Dakota, on the evening of June 28, 2025. Around 8:10 p.m., the tornado was still in a disorganized stage but was strong enough to intermittently touch down, rip a roof and door off of a barn and flip irrigation pivots on the north side of Highway 22 about two and a half miles east of Clear Lake. By approximately 8:14 p.m., the tornado crossed to the south side of Highway 22 and began to intensify. From there, it tracked slowly eastward, frequently changing appearance. Numerous reports, photos, and videos captured the tornado shapeshifting, including a distinct wobble or dancing motion. During this time, the tornado passed over a gravel pit, where large trees were snapped and windows were broken out of heavy machinery. Continuing east, the tornado reached 483rd Avenue, where it caused additional tree damage. Around 8:26 to 8:27 p.m., it crossed back to the north side of Highway 22, briefly stalled, and brought down a power pole. The tornado then picked up speed and continued east toward a farmstead on 484th Avenue, arriving around 8:31 p.m. The core of the tornado passed just north of the main house, but the property still sustained significant damage. A portion of the house roof panels were ripped off and windows were broken out. A machine shed was completely destroyed, along with a garage and another outbuilding. The shelterbelt on the north side of the property was heavily damaged, with tree trunks snapped, trees uprooted, and large branches broken. Around 8:32 p.m., the tornado continued east, passing north of another farmstead where a single shed was destroyed. Then, at approximately 8:34 p.m., the tornado directly struck a farmstead. Evidence of ground scouring was visible in the field before the tornado reached the property. As it approached, it tore through a wide shelterbelt, snapping and uprooting trees and completely blocking the driveway with debris. The house, which included the original structure that was over a century old combined with a newer addition, was completely wiped from its foundation. The debris was thrown west. The residents sheltered in the basement, where hay bales were lofted into the air and landed on top of them. Despite the extreme damage, only two non-life-threatening injuries were reported. A garage and machine shed directly east of the house were also completely swept off their slabs. An SUV and a half-ton Chevy Silverado pickup were inside the garage. Another SUV was parked outside. The two SUVs were lofted and ended up wedged in trees approximately 50 to 60 yards northeast of where the garage once stood. Many of those trees exhibited debarking. The half-ton Chevy Silverado pickup was hurled nearly 300 yards northeast. The truck's rear axle was torn completely off during flight, with no evidence of the vehicle rolling or tumbling until it hit the ground. A horse trailer and other farm equipment in and next to the machine shed were also thrown into the shelterbelt. On the south side of the property, two empty metal grain bins were wiped clean from their foundations. A concrete foundation barn was dismantled, a pole barn collapsed, and an empty concrete silo was completely swept from its slab. As the track continued northeast, fence posts were sheared off at ground level, and large pieces of debris were driven into the crop ground with extreme force. A trail of debris was scattered into the adjacent fields. The tornado track turned more to the north-northeast as it crossed 181st Street. More tree damage was observed, with trunks snapped and large branches down. Debris was caught in fence lines, and hay was seen hanging from power lines in the area. The tornado crossed 180th street and somewhere around 8:45 p.m. it began to rope out, swirling over an open field and tracking back to the southwest. It finally lifted around 8:49 p.m., concluding a nearly 40-minute track that stretched roughly 9.71 miles. The tornado was rated as a high-end EF3 with wind speeds estimated between 155 to 165 mph. |
| 01:49Z | EFU | KFSD | MN | Yellow Medicine | Burr | A tornado in far northwestern Yellow Medicine County was caught on video from three different storm chasers in three different locations. A law enforcement officer also took video of the tornado. This allowed triangulation of the approximate tornado track. It appears to have moved across a field and dissipated. Satellite imagery did not indicate any track and the tornado did not hit any damage indicators. |
| 05:10Z | EF0 | KMPX | MN | Carver | Assumption | A shed and an old barn collapsed. Many dozens of trees were broken. The maximum estimated wind speed was 80 mph. |
| 05:11Z | EF0 | KMPX | MN | Carver | Bongards | The tornado mostly crossed fields, but did hit a couple stands of trees, breaking large branches. The maximum estimated wind speed was 70 mph. |
| 05:12Z | EF0 | KMPX | MN | Carver | Bongards | This tornado broke or uprooted dozens of trees. It hit one farm, damaging several outbuildings. Roof panels were removed, the door was blown off a large shed, and other damage was noted per drone imagery. The drone imagery also helped indicate the location of some of the tree damage. An old barn also collapsed. The start of the tornado was estimated based on a distant view from drone video. The maximum estimated wind speed was 85 mph. |
| 05:14Z | EF1 | KMPX | MN | Carver | Mayer | Touchdown was likely in a field northwest of Goose Lake. The most substantial tree damage occurred along the northwest shore of Lake Waconia.

The maximum estimated wind speed was 95 mph. |
| 05:23Z | EF1 | KMPX | MN | Carver | Victoria | The tornado touchdown likely occurred in the northern part of Carver Park Reserve before tracking across portions of Stone Lake and Lake Zumbra. Tree damage occurred along the shores of Lake Zumbra & residences on Zumbra Drive. The most extensive tree damage occurred at Rolling Acres Rd and Highway 7 where numerous trees were uprooted or were broken. The tornado terminated over Lake Minnewashta. The maximum estimated winds were 90 mph. |
