Prowers County VS Tornado June 23, 2023

JUNE 23, 2023 8:00 pm

This afternoon Prowers County experienced a severe thunderstorm producing at least one tornado that touched down 15 miles south of the Town of Granada. 

Prowers County Sheriff's Office received reports of damage to property around the area of County Road 25 and County Road R. The deputies who responded to that location have confirmed that multiple structures, including a residence, were completely destroyed by the tornado.

Fortunately, the family in the home took shelter in their basement and have reported no injuries. Power is out in some parts of Prowers County, notably in and around Granada, and crews are working to make those repairs as soon as they can safely do so.

We will release any updates as we receive them.
