Heat burst reported out west

Our Cumulus radio partner Scot Bertram with WROK also shared this story with me from KSN-TV


A rather rare weather phenomenon was felt across parts of Kansas early this morning.  A heat burst occurred overnight near Wichita, KS which caused the temperature to rise from 85° at 12:22 am to 102° at 12:42 am, just 20 minutes apart.  Here is the write up from the Wichita NWS.

The same thing also occurred yesterday morning across parts of southern Wisconsin as a line of showers started to decay.  Pretty cool, or hot?!? :)
