NEWS RELEASE: Three state park beaches temporarily closed for water quality issues‏

Three state park swimming beaches have been temporarily closed for water quality issues, according to the Missouri Department of Natural Resources.
The state park beaches at Harry S Truman located in Warsaw, Lake of the Ozarks located in Osage Beach and Mark Twain located in Florida are closed following results of water samples taken Monday that indicated bacteria levels higher than those recommended for waters used for swimming.
Last week, Mark Twain located in Florida, Lake Wappapello located in Williamsville, and Thousand Hills located in Kirksville were closed due to flooding. The beaches remain closed due to flooding and Mark Twain remains closed due flooding and high bacteria levels.
The campground beach at Harry S Truman State Park remains open. Visitors to Harry S Truman State Park may stop by the office or fee booth to obtain a pass free of charge to swim at the campground beach. Once tests from the three state park beaches indicate the bacteria levels are within the standard suitable for swimming, the beaches will reopen.
The department collects water samples from all designated beaches in the state park system weekly during the recreational season to determine suitability for swimming. Beaches will be closed for high bacteria when a single E. coli sample exceeds 235 cfu/100ml or when the geometric mean – a 30-day rolling average – exceeds 126 cfu/100 ml. The sample test results indicate a snap shot of the water quality taken at the beaches at a specific time; however, a single sample does not provide an overall sense of the water quality in the lake where the beach is located.
The department will post the information about the beach status on the website at dnr.mo.gov as well asmostateparks.com. Visitors to Missouri State Parks are able to sign up to receive free electronic notices about the status of state park beaches while visiting the department’s beach status website.
Missouri's state parks and historic sites offer something to suit everyone's taste - outdoor adventure, great scenery and a bit of history. With Missouri's 87 state parks and historic sites, the possibilities are boundless. For more information about Missouri state parks and historic sites and swimming beaches, visit mostateparks.com.

Weather Update: A soggy April-Like Afternoon


Two areas of showers, essentially remnants of a large thunderstorm complex which affected Kansas last night, have persisted across western Missouri this afternoon. We do not anticipate this activity to dissipate any time soon, especially from northern portions of Kansas City to the Iowa border where showers could be heavy at times. The second cluster of showers south and east of Kansas City may move slowly eastward. Temperatures will be held in the middle 60s where rain is falling, and only reach the lower 70s from Kirksville to Columbia. Some localized areas received over an inch of rain in thunderstorms this morning. How much rain has your location received today?
