Local Weather History For March 23rd...

With very warm temperatures combining with strong winds and very dry
air, a large wildfire began just north and east of Freedom, in Woods
County of northwest Oklahoma on this date back in 2016. The fire
spread quickly northeast into southern Kansas. Thankfully, no human
lives were lost. Over 300,000 acres of rangeland burned, and at least
25 structures and several hundred livestock were lost.
