Summary

After devastating storms with 110 mph winds, torrential rain, and hail ripped through Kansas, crews from the Kansas Electric Cooperatives battled flooded fields, scorching heat, and relentless weather to restore power to 25,000 customers. Over 160 structures were damaged, including critical poles and transformers, but thanks to relentless efforts—sometimes wading waist-deep in water—power is now fully restored. Cleanup and rebuilding are underway as crews honor their commitment to get communities back to normal, proving resilience in the face of nature’s fury.
