Cypress Sun Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 You folks in the midsection of the country be safe. Tornadoes are nothing to take lightly as I'm sure you're aware of. If the warning goes off, take shelter immediately. Remember, the warning only goes off AFTER the tornado has made landfall or is about to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smoken D Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 Friends place up by Warsaw, Mo. had a tree struck by lightning. Half of the tree fell on storage shed and a large piece of bark hit the house which is like 50 yards from the tree. I had a lot of lightning after leaving Springfield going home to Warsaw between 2:30pm till 4pm. A lot of rain had come down. Truman Lake is still 3 feet above normal pool since the flooding last spring when the lake hit flood stage which is like 36 feet above normal pool.

Warden Callaway Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 View to the south about 4:00 BEFORE the storm hit. https://youtu.be/r2cOLzya-2Y Pitch black out now except for the lighting. Still 57°. The cold front is still 150 miles to the west. But the rain and thunderstorms are tracking right over us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pulp, SASS#28319 Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 The school I teach at (Marietta, OK)had a tornado evac today, 400 kids in a small basement is not enjoyable. Fortunately nothing happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abilene Slim SASS 81783 Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 At 7:00 pm we’re still hearing thunder. Snow to follow if the weather guessers are correct. I’m more concerned about ice and downed power lines like last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He usually came home on weekends but once called me & said come up here; you gotta see this. There had been a tornado come through his side of town; it demolished the nearby KMart. I mean nothing left but rubble. On the way, I passed stretches where trees were laid down all in the same direction, and one apartment building with an exterior wall sheared off -- it looked like looking into a dollhouse. Furniture still in place, lamps still on tables, pictures on walls undisturbed. It was bizarre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warden Callaway Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 It's just bright enough to go out and check the rain gauge. Got a total of a bit over 3-3/4". The major rain has moved east. But it's just at freezing and a mist in the air. But I hope we won't get the ice and snow. Missouri DOT road map shows roads a mess in north west Missouri. And a lot of road closures on rural roads due to flooding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smoken D Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 Exciting Missouri weather. 65 degrees yesterday, 25 now and dropping. Lightning, big boomers all night and a few inches of rain. Freezing over now and snow storm will be here in an hour. But, don't fret, will warm up again next week. Then will do it all over again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Man Graybeard Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 It seems that the last couple of years there has been worse weather at least earlier...to the south of us than we have been getting.

Pat Riot Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 That’s one thing I can say for winter in Oregon, South of Portland. You get a lot of rain but not a whole lot of snow and ice drama. And definitely no tornadoes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Original Lumpy Gritz Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 28* here, and my rain gauge shows 2 1/2" of rain in the last 24-26hrs. Weather guessers say a high of 30* today. OLG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warden Callaway Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 This morning we drove east on I70 towards Warrenton then to Washington. Below freezing but drizzling rain all the way. On return about 1:00, rain was harder and icing over on windshield and antenna. The further west we got, the worse it got. Rain turned to sleet then to a snow mix. When we got onto the secondary road, it was covered. We only had about 10 miles to go. Switched over to 4WD just in case. Home by the fire looking at a white dusting of snow, sleet and ice. Larger streams were running bank full and some fields flooded. The Missouri river has a lot of junk in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abilene Slim SASS 81783 Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 At 2:50 the snow is over in KC. 1 1/2"-2" at our house and partly sunny. So much for the weather guessers' snowmageddon. How have the rest of you fared? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
