A powerful and quick-moving storm swept through the Twin Cities metro area Sunday night, dumping golf ball-sized hail across a swath starting in Plymouth, swooping through Golden Valley, Roseville and downtown St. Paul, meteorologists said.

Dan Hawblitzel, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service Twin Cities office, said the storm brought with it 50 to 65 mph winds. Another storm was striking the southwestern metro about 8:30 p.m. after the first storm had left, prompting warnings in parts of Carver and Scott counties.

There were reports of sporadic tree damage but it was too early to gauge rainfall amounts, he said.
