Neighbors in the Ranchero Village manufactured home community started a donation drive in the wake of EF1 tornado.

The National Weather Service Tuesday assigned an EF-2 rating to the twister after studying scattered signs of damage in its path about 25 miles southwest of North Platte Monday night.

The weekend tornado that killed three people in rural Enderlin was the most deadly North Dakota has seen in nearly five decades.

Officials confirmed damage to an estimated 10-15 homes in Bay Ranch and 40-50 homes in Ranchero Village, ranging from minor to severe conditions.

Authorities have confirmed a fourth death from storms that tore across North Dakota last Friday, in Stutsman County.
