    Severe weather moved through the area Wednesday night causing bouts of heavy rain and hail in the area.

    Ping pong ball to golf ball sized hail was reported near Olsburg and similar reports were seen near Milford where egg sized hail was reported. Elsewhere, quarter to half dollar sized hail was reported from Grandview Plaza to Frankfort. Heavy rain fell in Manhattan, dumping 0.82 inches of precipitation, according to the National Weather Service.

    Further south, tornadoes were reported near Emporia, with confirmed touchdowns by weather spotters in Chase and Lyon counties. Strong winds blew over a semi near Strong City and caused a second car crash in the same area on US Highway 50.

    Power outages were noted still Thursday morning in that area.
