557 NOUS43 KGLD 111207 PNSGLD Public Information Statement National Weather Service Goodland KS 600 AM MDT Thu Apr 11 2024 ...ON THIS DATE IN WEATHER HISTORY... In 1995, a spring time blizzard brought heavy snows to portions of the area. Locations near the Colorado border found snow accumulations of five to ten inches. Northwest winds gusting to 40 mph helped to bring near white out conditions for several hours. Temperatures down to 16 degrees in Tribune Kansas damaged wheat in a critical growth stage. Estimated crop damage was two and a half million dollars. To the east, warmer temperatures kept the precipitation as mostly rain. Norton Kansas only measured a trace of snow. In 2001, a strong spring storm resulted in damaging winds across northwest Kansas. The winds especially affected travel as blowing dust closed down roads. $$
