How do you get a copy of a will in Minnesota?
If the will has been filed in probate then you can contact the court to obtain a copy. If your brother refuses to file the will for probate then some other family member should petition the court to be appointed the administrator of the estate as though your mother died without a will. It is likely that your brother would then produce the will. If not, the court should be made aware of his possession of the will and refusal to file it.
It is illegal to withhold a will from being probated. You should consult with an attorney who specializes in probate who could review the situation and explain your options.
Why does Minnesota have so many tornadoes?
Minnesota does not have as many tornadoes as a Tornado Alley state, but it still has a relatively high rate because it is near Tornado Alley, and so it is subject to some of the same collisions of cool, dry Canadian air with warm, moist air from the Gulf of Mexico, generating strong thunderstorms. An inversion cap holds back storm development, until the storms break through and develop explosively, becoming extremely powerful. Differences in wind speed and direction at different altitudes give these storms the rotation needed to produce tornadoes.
