I want to warn you ahead of time so you're not startled. There is a very good chance that you'll see something that hasn't been seen over Missouri for a long time. It's a 'mysterious ball of fire', but don't be alarmed. It's not the end of the world - yet.
Things are done differently in Missouri and I do mean that as a compliment. Exhibit A is a new Ring doorbell camera video that reveals two T-Rexes playing in the snow in Kearney. Yes, really.
I don't think I've ever seen a more crazy winter weather moment than this one. There's an insane video showing what I believe is a firetruck in the St. Louis, Missouri area doing a complete 360 in a neighborhood after hitting ice.
My radio career began doing weekend weather forecasts which is odd because I used to know next to nothing about weather. That's why I defer to the experts from the National Weather Service when it comes to forecasts. They just said that the polar vortex will soon return to Missouri with a vengeance, but I have questions.
Winter is here and the temperatures are frigid. For those living near a body of water, it means taking extra precautions for yourself, your children, and your pets.
