Terrific hail storm damages Cheyenne County crops
A severe hail storm last Saturday afternoon struck farmlands across Cheyenne County and beyond. Hail up to walnut size battered windows and crops, shredding corn stalks and wheat fields while hay and stationary equipment were toppled. Insurance claims surge as wheat yields decline, though some harvested crops escaped. Reports indicate the storm possibly traversed from Scotts Bluff through Colorado into Kansas, but confirmations are pending. Cheyenne County, a leading U S wheat producer, faces substantial losses with thousands of acres untouched.
