1:50PM Update: We are warning free across our area. The storms still present a heavy rain threat, with isolated strong winds. There's a non-zero risk in western WI for severe winds with storms still anchored to the gust front. #mnwx #wiwx

The outflow boundary from the northern metro storms has sunk south toward the 35 split in the southern metro, so it doesn't appear tornadoes are likely in the core metro anymore. Therefore, the tornado warning expired at 1 am. Strong winds and heavy rain are still expected #mnwx

Severe Thunderstorm Warning including Woodbury MN, Maplewood MN and Cottage Grove MN until 2:00 AM CDT

11:45PM Update: The line of storms continues to produce heavy rainfall and damaging wind gusts with trees knocked down. We are watching for potential flooding as the storms start to stall out along a line from west to east. This could include the Twin Cities metro. #mnwx #wiwx
