episode_narrativeA strong cold front brought high winds, blowing dust, and a wildfire to Northwest Kansas. The high winds led to some wind damage across the area. In addition, the winds caused widespread blowing dust with zero visibility, which resulted in at least 2 accidents on area roadways. Finally, as the winds brought down power lines in Weskan, a wildfire began and rapidly spread. The fire was so large that fire departments from neighboring counties were asked to respond.
event_narrativeFifty yard visibility reported at Monument Rocks relayed via social media. Visibility less than one quarter mile due to blowing dust in Grinnell. Dust storm visible on KDOT cameras on I-70 just east of Grainfield and 2 miles east of Grainfield. Social media report of quarter mile visibility in Quinter. At least one accident involving two vehicles occurred on I-70 near Grainfield due to the blowing dust.
