Local Weather History For July 8th...
1961: Two brief tornadoes were observed moving over open country near the Star Route area (10 miles NW of Morton) this
evening. The parent storm produced intense rainfall totals between 3.6 and 4 inches, small hail that damaged up to 90% of
area crops, and non-tornadic winds that demolished a few barns and outbuildings.
