I wanted to get ahead of something you're about to hear a lot about if you live in Missouri or Illinois if you haven't already. There are models that show big snow is possible, but you really shouldn't worry much - yet.

The Northern Lights are a rare occurrence over Missouri and Illinois. That's why I'm always hesitant to mention the possibility as I'd rather not say anything instead of get hopes up and disappoint. However, 3 Earth-directed CME's that will be arriving imminently give our part of America a better-than-average chance of seeing the Aurora Borealis.

When I watch incoming winter weather systems, I keep my eye on trends. Are forecast estimates for snowfalls going up or down? Many times that will tell the tale of how bad a storm will be. The system that will bring snow to parts of Missouri and Illinois this weekend now seems to be trending up, but don't worry.

You can already feel a slight chill in the air. When will that little bit of coldness become actual freezing temperatures in Missouri? Based on recent history, sooner than you think.

We see our share of tornadoes in Missouri and Illinois. However, there is one twister that did something so strange I have yet to hear an explanation that can tell me how a monster twister managed to destroy everything, but miraculously left 1 lone house standing.

We are about to hit storm season and lighting strikes have always fascinated me. One lightning strike caught on camera looks like lasers in the sky.

It's been a heck of a year for weather and Quincy tops the National Weather Serice top 5 list for weather events in 2021.

That was a pretty crazy severe storm we had this weekend which produced a ton of rain, but also an amazing lightning show.

Illinois faces the chance that records could be broken this week as a heatwave surges in late September across the Land of Lincoln.
