MN90: Surviving the Tornadoes of 1965 (Bratvold)

Titles: MN90: Surviving the Tornadoes of 1965 (Bratvold) (Supplied title)

Description: While many powerful and deadly tornadoes have battered Minnesota, those that struck on May 6, 1965, stand out because they hit the densely populated Twin Cities metro area. The fast-growing city of Fridley was hit particularly hard, with three funnel clouds touching down over the course of just a couple of hours. MN90 producer Marisa Helms looks back at the 1965 Fridley tornadoes and interviews some who survived the disaster.
