A temperature spike of nearly 20 degrees occurred in western Nebraska early Tuesday morning from a relatively rare phenomenon called a heat burst.
The temperature rose from 73.9 degrees to 92.3 degrees in about 2 hours. That temperature rise happened at a weather station early Tuesday morning in Ogallala, Nebraska, from 12:15 a.m. MDT to approximately 2:00 a.m. MDT. The temperature then fell back down into the 70s shortly thereafter.
Several other weather stations in the area also saw brief, notable overnight temperature increases, including one that jumped to 94 degrees.

So is there a cold burst? couldn’t find that on the web.
There is but it doesn’t fit the agenda.
Probably a bunch of people driving pickup trucks and SUVs nearby.
So, in other words, a “heat burst” is actually an ordinary chinook?
We used to call those cold fronts and warm fronts. Hard becoming a dinosaur
I stayed in Sault St. Marie, Michigan, in early August 2004. When I prepared to leave my hotel and head back south, I noticed my windshield was frosty.
Sounds like a warm front. Are they now calling warm fronts heat bursts?
“heat burst” is actually an ordinary chinook?”
No, a microburst with a stable boundary layer.
The Science(tm) proves the solution is a boot stamping on a human face forever.
” cold burst?”
A precipitation driven microburst or downburst under normal daytime conditions. Created by rain-cooled air. Temperatures can easily drop 20 or more degrees F. Look up microbursts/downbursts.
It often get very cold in August, even in lower Michigan on calm, clear nights as winds drop down to nil.
It used to be that only sports reporters were able to use such cool adjectives.
lol.
It is currently 96 degrees here in central Kansas, with a heat-index of 105. Late last December, the temperature dropped to about -12 degrees for three nights in a row. Imagine that, hot in Kansas in the summertime and cold in the winter. I don’t think I’m going to worry about it too much.
Been going on occasionally forever, it’s when a collapsing thunderstorm causes a huge increase in temperature because of the air compressing.

The intent of the report is to enforce man made climate change. Another jellybean added to the jar.
Ogallala..Comanche country just before Colorado line.

Heat burst...AKA summer on the Great Plains.
