A cluster of thunderstorms developed across eastern Montana and the western Dakotas during the morning hours. These storms organized and turned southeastward, feeding on rich inflow of post-frontal air with up to 3000 J/kg of MLCAPE and over 1000 J/kg of DCAPE. Along with strong storm-relative shear, parameters favored development of a strong cold pool and balanced mesocyclone, which spread southeast with the cluster and developed a strong and long-duration severe wind event which traversed South Dakota, southwest Minnesota, extreme northeast Nebraska, and northwest Iowa during the afternoon and early evening. The storm was classified as a derecho, and featured numerous wind gusts from 70 to 100 mph and considerable damage to trees, crops, powerlines, and structures along its path. In some cases, severe wind gusts persisted for more than 30 minutes. ||In addition, a separate cluster of thunderstorms ahead of the derecho produced very large hail in portions of southwest Minnesota.

Ice Storm. Ice accumulated to one-half to three quarters of an inch. As winds increased during the night of April 10 into early April 11 with gusts reaching 40 to 50 mph at times, power poles and transmission lines bore the brunt of the worst conditions. Warming shelters were set up in several communities which were without power for a day or two, due to more than 100 power poles snapped by the weight of the ice accumulation and stress of the high winds. Damage costs are rough estimates due to utility costs.
