It seem...We live in NW Missouri in Nodaway County.<br /><br />It seems like the really bad weather runs from the SW over Kansas City NE to St. Louis or from the NW over Omaha, NE across Southern Iowa below Des Moines. Some MO counties had grapefruit and baseball size hail last night, but we only got 1/4" size hail sometime during the night. Amount and time is known. Should we try to file an incomplete hail report or just make comments, as above, in our regular percipitation report?<br /><br />DonDon Lepleynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3915442507015152354.post-4268161299922238522009-06-07T20:16:21.273-06:002009-06-07T20:16:21.273-06:00My wife is born and raised in St. Louis, MO. She ...My wife is born and raised in St. Louis, MO. She moved to Oshkosh, WI in 2000. <br /><br />In my time spent in MO, mainly the STL area, I've experienced a major snowstorm, an icestorm or two, and what I would consider a heatwave. I recall a year or two when WI was threatened with a brown Christmas... I'd get my white Christmas in STL. <br /><br />From my point of view, it's an extreme climate with extreme heat during the months of June thru September with lawns drying up real quick. We decided to get married there in the early part of April in 2005... it was a treat. Sunny with temps in the 70's. The trees and flowers were blooming, couldn't ask for anything better.<br /><br />Coming from a Wisconsinite... it's a great place to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there. ;)Josh Hermanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10809581468183556700noreply@blogger.com
