Hail in Sherman County, Kansas

Report from mPing.

During the late afternoon, and into the evening, numerous thunderstorms formed over Northwest Kansas in the vicinity of a sharpening dryline. One of them produced hail up to baseball size over and near Goodland. This same storm also produced wind gusts over 80 mph at the Goodland airport. The storm near Goodland produced a brief tornado southwest of Edson as it merged with another storm. As thunderstorms moved eastward, they continued to produce straight-line winds across Thomas, Sheridan, Graham, Norton, and Gove counties. Over 40 power poles were snapped in Sheridan County, and a machine shed north of Hoxie sustained damage. Dust storm conditions were reported on the south edge of the thunderstorm activity as the storms moved east over northern Gove County.
