Spring

There's a new Spring outlook for Missouri that's just been shared by Farmer's Almanac that predicts thunder, snow and very late-arriving warm weather months.

If you think weather is hard to predict looking just a few days ahead, you should try to do it one more season ahead. Farmer's Almanac is famous for long-range forecasting and they've just predicted that Illinois will get drenched once Spring arrives.

Why wait for the rest of winter to play out when you can find out what Spring will be like now thanks to NOAA?

Silver Dollar City just made a big announcement about what their plans are for their part of Branson, Missouri.

I am not an alarmist and it's not exactly breaking news anyway that Illinois sees a lot of tornadoes every Spring. However, it might bear watching 2024 in particular as past weather patterns might indicate the Land of Lincoln might be in the danger zone for twister development.

Would you agree that it's gotten warmer earlier than it normally does in Missouri? Does that mean we've seen our last freeze for the season? According to history, don't put your tomato plants out just yet.

Do you have a feeling that something is wrong with Missouri's weather? A sense that something is just...off. If that's the case, you're not alone and you're not necessarily wrong. There's evidence that plants are growing about 20 days ahead of schedule.

We haven't even started March in Missouri, but Farmer's Almanac is peering even further into the future with a prediction of big snow possible for the Show Me State in April...sort of.

My dad told me that if you don't like the weather in Missouri, just wait 10 minutes. That has never been more true than this week where heat, tornadoes, snow and wildfires are all possible some on back-to-back days.

There's good news and bad news about what many forecasters consider to be a dangerous storm system that will impact Missouri early next week. It is expected to crash Missouri temperatures and cause them to freefall more than 50 degrees in just hours, but that drop won't last long.
