Meanwhile, the same cold front produced violent weather in Minnesota with a localized tornado event. Four tornadoes were reported and four were confirmed, but one was an F3 - the first in the US since May. It took place in Watonwan County near the town of Butterfield. Another tornado near St. James in Cottonwood County was reported; it was an F1. With the first tornado, one farmhouse was flattened, but it was poorly attached - preventing an F4 according to early surveys. It also destroyed the barns, cornfields and silos surrounding the farmhouse. No injuries were reported. The second tornado left moderate damage - including tearing the roofs of a few houses, although it destroyed a few outbuildings. The path of the second tornado was quite erratic at times.
