The Trail Ridge Fire began in extreme northwest Beaverhead County, approximately 22 miles northwest of Wisdom, near the Beaverhead/Ravalli County line. 18,138 acres burned across the two counties with the cause of the fire being officially listed as lightning. The fire persisted through September and into late October and will also be listed in Storm Data for those respective months.
An upper level system over northern California ushered mid-level moisture into West Texas as a weak disturbance aloft assisted in shower and thunderstorm development across the Texas and Oklahoma Panhandles. A dryline stretched southwest to northeast across the central Texas Panhandle. Strong to severe scattered thunderstorms initiated along and east of the dryline during the late afternoon hours. Large hail up to tennis ball size, wind gusts of 60 to 70 mph and some areas of blowing dust were reported throughout the late afternoon and early evening hours with these storms. By sunset, the storms became linear and wind became the main hazard. Severe wind gusts up to 70 to 80 mph as this occurred. The highest wind gust of 81 mph was measured at the West Texas Mesonet 2 miles east of Pampa, Texas. Following the line of storms, light rain showers developed with bursts of gusty winds across portions of the eastern half of the Texas and Oklahoma Panhandles. In addition, a few severe wind gusts occurred on the western edge of the light precipitation. These may have been more related to heat burst processes.

A deepening and occluded surface low moved north-northeastward from eastern Iowa to northern Wisconsin during the late morning through early evening of the 5th. This low interacted with a strong surface high pressure ridge to its east, which lead to a tight mean sea-level pressure gradient across Lake Erie and vicinity, including northern Ohio. The tight pressure gradient and diurnal convective mixing of the boundary layer over land, tapping into stronger flow aloft, resulted in southerly to south-southwesterly surface wind gusts as strong as 30 to 40 knots in northern Ohio and over adjacent waters of Lake Erie. Unfortunately a kayaker ventured onto Lake Erie and perished while encountering the gusty winds and sizable waves. A Small Craft Advisory was in effect.
