Damage reports are coming in after hurricane-force winds that swept through parts of South Dakota late last week.
Winds gusting to 76 mph late Thursday or early Friday are believed to have blown down a 100-foot-tall grain dryer at the CHS Farmers Alliance elevator in Mitchell.
General Manager Jim Morken said the bin had about 6,500 bushels of corn. He says the grain worth about $20,000 likely isn't salvageable.
Winds gusting to 78 mph also blew down a 60-foot-tall tree in Pierre.
