| Episode Narrative | A low pressure system and associated cold front moved across Northwest Kansas during the afternoon hours producing a line of thunderstorms that produced accumulating hail up to ping pong ball in size from Gove County to Norton County. The largest hail fell in the town of Seguin, Kansas in Sheridan County. Thunderstorm wind gusts of 50 to 63 mph were observed with the storms. The strongest gust was reported in the city of Norton. Localized blowing dust with visibility down to 50 feet was observed in Gove County; however, all nearby mesonets were reporting sub-severe thunderstorm wind gusts. Two brief EF-Unknown tornadoes also occurred south of Campus and I-70 in open fields. |
| Event Narrative | Multiple reports with images of a landspout tornado in fields south of I-70 where it crossed from County Road 20 between County Roads BB and CC. No damage was observed. The tornado occurred over a duration of six minutes before dissipating. |
