Here's a zoomed in animation of the dust progression (in yellow) from the #GOES16 DEBRA product, and the fire temperature product overlaid, from Noon to 6:30 PM Central. Should be easier to see the fires flare up in this one.

Based on RTMA analysis shown here, and some observations, it looks like there was a corridor of enhanced wind in north-central Kansas near where the tip of the cloud comma head passed. That was also where numerous fires erupted.
