Dust Devil so Big It Could Be Seen for Miles Forms at Kentucky Fairgrounds
The dust devil formed due to warming temperatures and light breezes, creating a self-sustaining vortex visible for miles near Louisville's airport and fairgrounds.
- A large dust devil formed Wednesday near the fairgrounds and Louisville's international airport in Kentucky, visible for miles.
- The event was triggered by clear weather, gentle winds, and rapidly increasing temperatures that warmed the ground, leading to rising air and the development of low pressure.
- The dust devil was hundreds of feet tall, swirling near construction by the Kentucky Expo Center, and Dave Tors recorded video at UPS Worldport.
- Dust devils like this can produce wind speeds exceeding 60 mph, which may cause damage, though they are typically smaller than tornadoes.
- This event highlights how specific weather conditions can create large, visible dust devils that eventually weaken as cooler air dilutes the circulation.
