The wider storm

An intense low pressure system tracked across the Plains on March 31st, 2023. South central and southeast Kansas reported wind gusts in the 55 to 70 mph range, which caused tree and structure damage. These winds made grass fires very difficult to control. Dry conditions with a recently tilled field combined with the strong winds resulted in dirt to be picked up in Labette County.
