Snow Rollers Appear in Kansas

Russell Countians saw an unusual winter weather phenomenon Dec. 18, 2000. Strong winds coupled with just the right snow conditions to produce nature-generated snowballs. These "snow rollers" ranged in size from baseballs to 30-gallon drums. They were seen on city streets, golf courses, and other smooth surfaces throughout the county, including the towns of Lucas, Wilson, Luray and Russell.
