While fighting a field fire west of Chebanse today we experienced two of these “dust devils” right through the fire. Very cool to see!

On Wednesday during the “Snow Squall” event, we were dispatched to a car versus jackknifed semi on I-57 near the 302 mile marker. Upon arrival of our auto aid chief, he located several crashed vehicles around the 304 mile marker. Our Engine 38 met with him while our Engine 35 located the original crash.
In all 15 passenger vehicles and 11 commercial vehicles were involved. Miraculously only 3 minor injuries were reported and transported to the hospital. Several refusals were also taken. Here are a few pics and a short drone video after the fact from Chicago & Midwest Storm Chasers.
We would like to thanks the following for the help:
Kankakee Township Fire Protection District. Kankakee Firefighters Local 653.
Riverside Ambulance, Chebanse Township Fire Department, Illinois State Police Troop 5. Illinois Department of Transportation. CBR Towing and Recovery.
