The wider storm

A strong weather system moved across Northwest Kansas causing a multitude of weather hazards across the area such as blizzard conditions, damaging winds, dust and a wildfire. The most notable ones were an 83 mph wind gust and brownout conditions in Greeley County, a flipped semi in Thomas County, and a brief closure of Interstate 70 eastbound between KS 267 and US 24 due to a crash caused by the wind. Near blizzard to blizzard conditions also occurred across Sherman, Cheyenne, Decatur, Graham and Norton counties; very little impacts occurred with these conditions however.
