Well, I hope you did not have any power failures in your neighborhood. Rain is a good thing coming into spring.
Yesterday I did see an after the fact story for this area. Weather service did clock a 70+ gust about 2 counties north and a number of 60+ in my county and several others on either side, so I am relying on their figures. I did spend some time looking at the snow blowing under the nearby street lamps. It was not the fluffy type and there was less than 2”. Snow is not unusual, the sustained and high gusts with blowing snow was a bit different. Based on our clocks we lost power for about 3 hours but slept through it. We did have about 24” of snow this year which is not bad for the winter wheat in Eastern KS. (KS/MO Border Zone 6B )
