Winds up to 70 mph accompanied the dramatic frontal passage in Rapid City, S.D.
The temperature hit 70 degrees just before 11 a.m. in Rapid City, S.D., on Monday, with a warm westerly breeze and clear skies. Ten minutes later, the mercury had fallen 18 degrees, with 60 mph northwesterly wind gusts and smoke reducing visibilities.
It signaled the passage of a strong cold front, which has been packing a punch in the form of strong winds and fire weather concerns for many across the Northern Tier and central United States.
