An EF0 tornado hit a section of South Minneapolis Wednesday evening and caused considerable damage to property. The damage was targeted between 42nd and 35th Streets and between Park and Portland Avenues. One resident told me that his two daughters also had houses damaged in the storm. Although the tornado was rated as in the least severe category by the National Weather Service, it managed to rip part of the roof off the Minneapolis Convention Center.
