Special Weather Statement issued June 11 at 12:54PM CDT by NWS Grand Forks ND
Showers and thunderstorms have developed across portions of the southern Red River Valley into northwest Minnesota, tracking eastward this afternoon into portions of west-central Minnesota. Conditions are favorable for funnel clouds with any thunderstorm that develops. These types of funnel clouds are usually short lived, however, they can and occasionally do touch the ground and cause minor damage. Therefore, if you see a funnel cloud, take cover immediately.
About
Lake Bemidji State Park Campground occupies a shaded, wooded area directly on the shores of Lake Bemidji in northern Minnesota. The 95-site campground includes 43 sites with 30-amp electrical hookups, 4-5 pull-through sites suitable for larger RVs, and 4 wheelchair-accessible campsites. Modern amenities include flush toilets, hot-water showers, potable water spigots, and an RV dump station, though the showers, flush toilets, and dump station are seasonal and close during winter months. Vault toilets remain available year-round. Free WiFi covers both the campground and visitor center. The park provides excellent lake access with a swimming beach, marina, and boat launch for exploring 6,420-acre Lake Bemidji. Anglers target walleye, northern pike, and panfish. Beyond the water, 15 miles of trails wind through old-growth pine forests, bog boardwalks, and habitat for wildlife including bald eagles and white-tailed deer. Winter visitors can cross-country ski, snowshoe, or snowmobile, though winter camping is limited to one drive-in site with additional walk-in options available after snow cover. Year-round naturalist-led programs operate from the visitor center.
