I know, it's one of the many big fun things from yesteryear that is missing in this moder era :!: I think Babe may have been the same for Me too, if it wasn't then it Star Trek: First Contact in 1996 that I definitely noticed him. How about that Wonder Years.

The Midwest got hit huge with storms last night. We knew bad weather was coming. He had 30 MPH winds with 55 MPH gusts :!: We had a lot a rain and tons of hail, lightning & thunder. The Tornado sirens were going off all night and it was scary as there was Tornado WARNINGS :!: It was the first big storm of the year. Here's these videos from Fox 2 to give you an example what Missouri & Illinois went through :shock:

Geez, we've had some high winds but nothing like that. Stay safe.

That was some IASIP :!:

Yes, it's get's terrible in St. Louis. We always have strange weather here. How about the woman they interviwed and that Kevin guy went thru 8 Tornados, can you believe that :o That poor, 250 year old tree :roll: :batsmh: :wwsmh: :smsmh:

There's more reports coming from Fox 2. This was in Arnold. Arnold is just ahead/past South County so I know that area well :shock:



Now, check this. Here's this poor Burger King. There was about a dozen people trapped there but thank goodness they were all rescued. Here's the report :o



Guess what...from those storms to snow :? That's right, I just went outside and it's snowing right now as I'm typing this :batshock: It's really bonkers right now :wwshock: :smsmh:

I'm so done with snow. It was 73 here and then it started to rain and the temp dropped mid-day into the 40s. I'm ready for Spring.

How about that Michael Larson - TV Land's "Myths & Legends" :)

Oh yes, I am too and I want Spring as well and I know what you mean about the temp drops. With St. Louis, like I said yesterday, Our weather is bonkers. It can feel like Summer one day and then Winter the next :roll: There's more reports here. Over 30 people have perished due to this storm and those sirens that I talked about that We heard all night Friday Night, several states heard them too :!: Here's this report from News Nation.



Here's this from Fox Now. This one storm chaser was actually IN THE Tornado and he's right next to a QuikTrip in Mo :o :batshock: :wwshock: :smgasp:



Here's this video from some guy on YT. He's in the Ozarks. Remember I expressed My great time in the Lake of the Ozarks in 91 a while back. Well, this video shows you first hand by a witness to the destruction of this monster storm :roll:



That's all for now. Those movies like Twister, their not far fetched at all, there's a lot of realism to them. To think that Spring hasn't officially begun yet :o

Yikes is correct. There's THOUSANDS of people without power & electricity since Friday as I speak. That's such a horrible situation there :batsmh: :wwsmh: :smsmh: Yes, sounds like your weather is crazy too :roll:

Ah yes, Happy belated St. Patrick's Day :) That was a good Home Improvement there and she was nice there during the first several seconds as well ;)

Okay, that's all about the storm stuff for now. Here's Circa Sports. I see commercials of it on Peacock and here & there. No, I do not bet nor gamble but I like seeing local stuff even from My neighbors in Illinois :)

I'm not much for gambling either. We used to do Texas Hold'em Tournaments at my friend's house back when that was big in the mid-2000s but I never did well because I hated losing money.

Oh yeah, I hate losing money too. Yeah, shame how things just drop off & fade away like that and then it's like...what happen :roll: That was a great Spider-Man clip there, really good animation & sound effects :batwink:

Here's a tiny bit on Fox 2 of what was going on in St. Louis in Dogtown for St. Patrick's Day ;)

Nice. They have a parade here every year but I've never gone. Honestly, not a fan of standing around for a parade. Meant to do this one for St Patrick's Day but forgot, so...
