  • Destructive Derecho Slams Northern Plains with Hurricane-Force Winds
    Nov 27 2025
    A destructive derecho unleashed hurricane-force wind gusts across the northern Plains this week, snapping trees and knocking out power in a dramatic display of nature's raw power. The storm system brought severe weather conditions that impacted multiple states, with the most significant impacts occurring in South Dakota and surrounding areas where wind speeds reached damaging levels.

    The derecho was part of a broader severe weather pattern affecting the central United States. According to AccuWeather meteorologists, a sprawling multiple-day severe weather event has been shifting eastward from the Great Plains toward the Mississippi, Ohio, and Tennessee valleys. This outbreak, which began on Friday and continues through the weekend, represents what may unfold into one of the biggest severe weather and tornado events of the year so far.

    The affected region spans over 500,000 square miles and is home to more than 100 million people across the central and southern United States. The severe weather threat extends through portions of the Dakotas, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Nebraska, Iowa, Illinois, and Michigan, with the risk reaching major cities including St. Louis, Chicago, Nashville, New Orleans, and Atlanta.

    Powerful wind gusts have been identified as the most common cause of tree, power line, and property damage from the thunderstorms. Meteorologists warn there may be hundreds of incidents of damaging, straight-line wind gusts. Some of the stronger thunderstorms are producing hail ranging from marble to golf ball size, with even larger hail possible in the biggest storms.

    The tornado threat extends into the nighttime hours Friday and Saturday nights, adding to the danger for residents across the region. AccuWeather meteorologists indicate that the most favorable zone for a clustering of thunderstorms capable of producing tornadoes may be centered in parts of Missouri, central and southern Illinois, and northern Arkansas, though tornadoes remain possible anywhere within the moderate-risk zones.

    As severe weather continues advancing toward the Atlantic coast by Sunday, travel disruptions are expected along busy Interstate corridors and at major airport hubs from Charlotte to Washington D.C., Philadelphia, and New York City. Heavy rainfall poses an additional threat, with one to three inches of rain possible in some areas within twelve hours.

  • Powerful Derecho Batters Northern Plains, Causing Widespread Damage
    Nov 25 2025
    Listeners, over the past week a significant derecho struck the northern Plains, particularly impacting parts of South Dakota. According to Fox Weather, this destructive windstorm barreled through on Friday and into early Saturday, unleashing hurricane-force wind gusts that snapped trees, toppled power lines, and inflicted widespread damage across rural communities. Wind gusts were reported in excess of 75 mph, which is typical of derechos, and officials described the scene in towns like De Smet as a swath of ruined timber and structural damage. For residents, this event was not just a fleeting squall—it was hours of relentless, damaging straight-line winds sweeping across several counties and uprooting everything from grain bins to utility poles.

    Local authorities scrambled to respond as thousands lost power overnight, with some communities facing extended outages into the weekend. Emergency crews worked through dangerous conditions to clear debris from major roads and rural highways, especially as downed trees blocked critical access in and out of affected towns. Social media users posted photos and videos showing entire rows of trees laid flat, destroyed barns, and wind-driven debris scattered for miles. According to regional National Weather Service offices, these winds rivaled the intensity of storms often associated with mid-summer, but came late in the autumn season when most foliage had already dropped, potentially reducing but not eliminating the threat to infrastructure.

    In addition to physical damage, the derecho hampered local travel. The high winds forced the closure of several roadways, and utility companies worked around the clock to repair lines. Residents were urged to avoid unnecessary travel, especially in rural areas where obstruction risks remained high and cold temperatures added to safety concerns for those at risk of exposure. Farmers in the region reported losses to outbuildings, equipment, and stored grain, intensifying the ongoing challenges posed by extreme weather events in recent years.

    Meteorologists point out that the late-season timing is unusual, but not unprecedented; research and reporting from The Breakthrough Institute highlight how derechos—which are particularly common in states like Iowa, Nebraska, and the Dakotas—have tended to occur with varying frequency, sometimes exacerbated by changing climate patterns. Some local officials are already discussing improvements to emergency alerting and infrastructure resilience, as this event underscored the vulnerability of rural power grids and tree populations to sudden, widespread wind damage.

    Listeners can expect the cleanup to take days or even weeks, with ongoing restoration efforts and community support networks mobilizing to assist those most affected. The region is already bracing for winter weather, with meteorologists warning of additional storms approaching the Upper Midwest.

  • Powerful Derecho Wreaks Havoc Across Northern Plains
    Nov 24 2025
    A powerful derecho swept across the northern Plains over the weekend, unleashing hurricane-force wind gusts that caused widespread destruction. Akaska, South Dakota, was among the hardest hit, with reports of snapped trees, downed power lines, and significant property damage. The storm system, which moved rapidly through the region, was marked by a long-lived line of thunderstorms that brought sustained winds exceeding 70 miles per hour in some areas. Local officials say the storm knocked out power for thousands and left emergency crews scrambling to clear debris and restore services.

    The derecho’s impact extended beyond South Dakota, affecting parts of North Dakota and Montana. Residents in these areas reported similar conditions, with strong winds toppling structures and making travel dangerous. The National Weather Service issued multiple warnings as the storm advanced, urging people to stay indoors and avoid unnecessary travel. The storm’s intensity caught many off guard, as derechos of this magnitude are relatively rare in the region during late November.

    Farmers and ranchers are now assessing the damage to crops and livestock. The timing of the storm is especially challenging, as many producers are preparing for winter and dealing with the aftermath of earlier disasters. The U.S. Department of Agriculture has already begun mobilizing resources to assist affected communities, with disaster relief programs now open for applications. Producers are encouraged to document losses and reach out to local Farm Service Agency offices for support.

    The derecho serves as a stark reminder of the unpredictable nature of severe weather in the United States. As climate patterns continue to shift, listeners can expect more frequent and intense windstorms in regions not traditionally associated with such events. Staying informed and prepared is crucial, especially during the winter months when storms can compound existing challenges.

    Thank you for tuning in. Come back next week for more updates on weather events and their impact across the country. This has been a Quiet Please production, and for me, check out Quiet Please Dot A I.
