Deephaven's Cottagewood neighborhood, May 1965.

Remembering the Lake Minnetonka Tornadoes of 1965 with Meteorologist Paul Huttner

Tuesday, May 6, 7:00 pm
Gillespie Center, Mound

Sixty years ago, the Lake Minnetonka area was hit hard by two F4 tornadoes. The storms killed three people, caused millions of dollars of damage, and destroyed hundreds of homes and businesses, forever changing the face of the lake and the lives of its residents. Former Deephaven resident and chief meteorologist for MPR News Paul Huttner will discuss the science behind that fateful day as well its influence on his career path.  

Attendees will have the opportunity to share their memories during the presentation and enjoy light refreshments. They are also welcome to bring tornado-related artifacts or photos to share with others or to donate to the Lake Minnetonka Historical Society for preservation.
