Ok, so it was on 2 different wind turbines 232 feet off the ground. 232 feet is not THAT high off the ground. Some objects I worked on here at the cargill plant are that height. I can't imagine being on them with 114 mph gusts.
From article:
These are just south of Ainsworth NE.
Thought this was really interesting.

From article:
“This week’s blizzard brought winds of more than 100 miles per hour,†said Chris Derickson, NPPD water systems/renewable energy resource leader. “Two turbines recorded wind gusts of 114 miles per hour, while another turbine recorded 100 mph gusts. That’s a hurricane on the plains.â€
