| episode_narrative | A significant weather system impacted the High Plains throughout the day on April 22nd and into the early morning hours of April 23rd. This weather system was not only a prolific wind producer, which led to many reports of high wind and wind damage, but also dust storm conditions and several large fires to occur. The largest fire occurred in northeast Decatur County, burning north into Nebraska. This fire was not extinguished until the 29th. During the afternoon and early evening hours of the 22nd, storms began to form along a dryline across northwestern Kansas and southwestern Nebraska. These storms primarily produced large hail up to baseball size, with a few instances of damaging thunderstorm winds. Later in the evening, a quasi-linear convective system (QLCS) developed over eastern Colorado, spreading east across northwest Kansas and southwest Nebraska during the overnight hours. These storms produced several tornadoes, along with thunderstorm wind gusts and thunderstorm wind damage. |
| event_narrative | A KDOT road camera recorded a video of an estimated 1/4 mile visibility due to blowing dust around mile marker 49 on I-70 1 mile south-southeast of Levant, KS. Wind gusts of around 55 mph from a nearby AWOS were reported at this time. |
