Tough day for Blackhawks football with loss to West Platte
Archie beats Lockwood in action this afternoon
Sunshine should be peeking through this weekend
Watch out for PATCHY FOG Saturday morning, especially in Missouri between highways 65 and 63.
I'll be jumping on the livestreams over the weekend tracking in the next rain system on Sunday night / Monday.
Still think the holiday and holiday weekend are cool, but dry. (It will snow up north in the midwest though, according to this afternoon's data!)
Have a great weekend!

Bears make donation to mammogram fund
Thank you to the Butler Bears for donating $930 from their Pink Games to the BCMH Cares Mammogram Fund!
This donation represents far more than dollars, it reflects students, teachers, coaches, and families working together to improve the health of women in their own community. Their dedication helps ensure that local women have access to the screening mammograms they need, regardless of ability to pay.
