Drought

It appears that parts of Missouri that are desperately in need of moisture will get rain later this week. The only question is how much and will it help the state's dire drought conditions. It looks like there's at least some hope of helpful rain coming.

Snow is annoying and frustrating to deal with, but if you live in Missouri you should be hoping for A LOT of it this year, but why? Here are the details on why the Governor of Missouri says he hopes snow is in the forecast...

Parts of Missouri especially in the central parts of the state were already suffering from extreme drought conditions, but now that's expanded to the northeast officially according to meteorologists at the National Weather Service in St. Louis.

We live in an era of extremes. While parts of Missouri and Illinois are flooding, others remain parched. It's so bad in the middle of Missouri that a new forecast now says the middle of the Show Me State can expect "extreme drought".

The good news? It was a mild winter for many parts of Missouri. The bad news? Drought conditions now reported in both Marion and Ralls County according to new government data.

I don't think I would have believed this if I hadn't seen it. A brand new video share shows the drastic change that the ongoing drought has done to a Missouri lake. Jaw-dropping only begins to describe it.

The more the Mississippi River waters fall due to drought, the more we're learning about the past. The most recent discovery in the river is a rare lion that once roamed America thousands of years ago.

The place where two mighty rivers meet doesn't look very mighty right now with the ongoing drought causing incredibly low water levels. New drone video shows exactly how low both rivers really are.

It's common knowledge that the Mississippi River water levels are low due to the ongoing drought. However, new drone video gives you an idea just how low the river is right now.

I love lawn sprinklers.  I didn't used to give them much thought, but after 700 days without rain, I love them now.  Here's the problem.  I don't have one.  And, without telling you more than you want to know, let's just say there aren't a lot of funds in the Holliday bank account that I can devote to a lawn sprinkler.
