"Some signs are unnecessary." -Matt Ridings

The end of 2015 brought a ridiculous amount of rain. With it, lots of flooding. We are still recovering.

And this could happen the day after record warm temperatures.

The New Madrid fault system caused four of the largest North American earthquakes in recorded history, all within a three-month period between December 1811 and February 1812. Frequent smaller earthquakes have occurred since then and the risk of larger earthquakes in the future is very real.

No matter what your belief system, Missourians are willing to stand up and be heard.

The Katy Trail covers much of the state and is one of the best biking trails around.

Especially in St. Louis and Kansas City.

All the crazy weather and all the traffic create massive potholes. They can be a bit of a pain, but are also dangerous and hard on your car.

Deer are plentiful and for some reason they can't stay off the roads. We really have to watch for them, especially at night.

Pollen. Dust. Ragweed. Mold. You name it, you'll probably find it here. AAACHOOO!

Folks in Joplin won't soon forget the big one in 2011. When they come, we hang tight and pick up the pieces after as a community.
