| episode_narrative | A strong low pressure center and tight pressure gradient and eventually a deeply mixed boundary layer produced strong surface winds. Winds also were very strong behind the associated cold front late in the day on the 6th. Winds picked up again on the 7th fanning residual fires. Many fires were started by downed power lines, many from weakened connections from the January ice storm. The fire in Ford county was the result of a brush pile in Dodge City that had not been fully extinguished before the dry, warm winds began. ||Statewide, grass fires shut down I-70 between Russell and Sylvan Grove, and fires were reported in Clark, Cheyenne, Commanche, Ellsworth, Hodgeman, Ford, Meade, Pratt, Rawlins, Rice, Reno, Smith, Stevens and Rooks counties. Residents of Wilson in central Kansas were told to evacuate homes due to fears of fire moving north of I-70. |
| event_narrative | Protection was evacuated twice but never had damage within the city limits. Although the fires subsided late on the 6th, the fire flared again by late morning on the 7th. |
