Harrisonville Trap Shoot Fundraiser September 18th


Heavy Rains Likely...

No cutsie images tonight. Sorry. The creative juices aren't flowing this morning. Midnight shifts will do that to you from time to time. For those of you who recall the series Dragnet (yeah I'm dating myself) "Just the facts ma'am". In a few words....it's gonna get wet. Could rain hard enough for some flooding. Hope not. Thinking this rain event could be like an Olympic boxing match and go 3 rounds. Looks like the show gets on the road this afternoon with round 1 affecting mainly northern Missouri. Round 2 is later this evening and probably affects most of us. Round 3 starts Thursday night and lasts into Friday night. That's when we'll likely see the heaviest rains. Thank you Hurricane "Fig" Newton.
