As spring continues to unfold across the northern plains, it normally means we need to pay attention to the potential of severe weather.
Todd Heitkamp, warning coordination meteorologist at the National Weather Service in Sioux Falls says severe weather season is underway.
Heitkamp says he has changed the presentation of the severe weather classes.
The first classes of the season will be tonight (Monday) in Menno. Classes then continue into mid May.
Heitkamp says we may see the first slight chance of severe weather in the region this week.
Severe weather awareness week in Minnesota will be April 13th through the 17th, and in South Dakota April 20th through the 24th.
