This was the third is a series of four systems that produced very winds conditions, roughly every other day, over the seven-day period from January 14th to the 20th. The first event on the 14th was an advisory event. The second on the 16th was a warning event. The event on this Saturday was primarily an advisory event, but a few high wind gusts of 58 mph or greater did occur as a result of an Alberta Clipper that dove from the Canadian Prairies southeastward into Minnesota, Iowa, and eventually Illinois by evening. These strong winds occurred behind the cold front, which moved through around daybreak. Sustained winds of 30-39 mph were widespread, along with gusts of 45-55 mph. Lexington, Kearney, and Aurora did measure sustained winds of at least 40 mph. However, only Aurora satisfied the 1 hour criterion. A few locations managed to record gusts of 58 mph or more. The highest wind gust was 65 mph, measured at Ohiowa.
