TOPEKA ( KSNT ) – Northeast Kansas residents are picking up after a night of violent storms. Storms caused major tree damage and even knocked out the National Weather Radio near Topeka.
Storm damage is being reported across the Northeast Kansas area Wednesday morning. The National Weather Service of Topeka announced that the NOAA Weather Radio Station that services Topeka was taken off the air. It’s unknown what caused the damage and it’s also unknown when it will be restored.
