It is noted that Highstorms are particularly bad on the Shattered Plains, as there is no shelter on top of the plateaus, and the chasms often flood. This, added to the Plains being eastern, where the Highstorms are strongest, is the reason the Plains are not the optimal place to experience a Highstorm outdoors.
Some accounts describe the Plains as looking as if something enormous had struck the center causing the Plains fracturing to radiate somewhat symmetrically in all directions. Claims of lights in the center plateau

== Inhabitants ==
The only known permanent inhabitants of the Shattered Plains are the [[Parshendi]]. The ten valleys are currently occupied by various [[Alethi]] armies fighting the Parshendi under the [[Vengeance Pact]]. The Plains and the surrounding area are so barren that the warcamps are perhaps the only places where it is acceptable to pile refuse up high and allow the highstorm to carry it away, as there is no danger of the trash being carried into another city.{{book ref|sa2|49}}
