Considering this outbreak occurred just three weeks after the Palm Sunday Tornado Outbreak , quick and successful warnings from the U.S. Weather Bureau kept the death toll relatively low. This was also the first time in Minnesota state history where the Civil Defense sirens were used for Severe Weather purposes. Three tornadoes hit Fridley that day. Six people were killed in the Fridley tornadoes and over 180 were injured. There are photographs for the earlier Deephaven and second Fridley tornado. Four tornadoes were rated F4, one was rated F3, and other was rated F2. SEE ALSO EXTERNAL LINKS AMD SOURCES
