Weather forecast office sourcewfo_sourceEmergency Manager
Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeA 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 burned 28,000 acres in eastern Red Willow County, and continued to burn through the 29th before being extinguished. During the afternoon and early evening hours, storms began to form along a dryline across northwestern Kansas and southwestern Nebraska. These storms primarily produced large hail with a few instances of damaging thunderstorm winds. Later in the evening a line of storms or 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 thunderstorm wind gusts and thunderstorm wind damage.
Event narrativeevent_narrativeA wildfire was reported by the emergency manager near Benkelman, NE that was caused by an unknown source. The wildfire was reported to be uncontained and caused the evacuation of Benkelman from Main Street and east of town north of the railroad. The evacuation was lifted a few hours later when the fire contained. No known damage or injuries were reported. Event times are based on report of the fire and radar imagery.
