Fall weather has arrived

Orionid Meteor Shower Peaking Tonight

For those needing an excuse to stay up late (or get up early), we present to you "the peak of the Orionid meteor shower" early Sunday morning. 

Due to the phase of the moon (waxing gibbous), the best time to see any meteors will be from 4 AM and 6 AM. 

After the moon sets and before sunrise. When it's coldest. So, remember your coat!

Very windy day

Northerly winds may approach 35 mph today, especially in north central Missouri. 

Otherwise, expect mostly sunny skies with cool and dry conditions for the next 5 days. 

It’s perfect weather to break out your hammock and channel your inner sloth!
