Hold the frost: why Mid-Missouri's first freeze could be delayed (opens the original)
Read excerpt
As October arrives, cooler mornings and changing foliage usually signal that autumn is settling in across Mid-Missouri. For gardeners, farmers, and anyone with sensitive outdoor plants, the calendar turning often raises an urgent question: how much longer do our green spaces have before the season's first damaging frost? Climatologically speaking, the window is rapidly approaching. However, long-range forecast patterns suggest that your garden may get a slightly longer period of peace. Across th

TODAY: I'm tracking scattered showers again this morning as temperatures start in the low 60s walking out the door. By the afternoon hours, coverage is expected to decrease, but a few rogue showers can't be ruled out as temperatures warm into the low to mid-70s and winds blow from the east at 5-10 mph. TONIGHT: I'm tracking cloud cover gradually falling apart overnight as temperatures drop into the upper 50s by the end of the night. Winds will continue to stay out of the east at 3-6 mph. EXTENDE
What a "flash drought" means for the Mid-Missouri harvest (opens the original)
Read excerpt
September is typically a time of plenty across the heartland, but instead, our local fields are drying out at near-record speed. Weeks of relentless late-summer sunshine, near-record temperatures, and high evaporation rates have acted like a giant blow dryer on Mid-Missouri. The result is a rapidly accelerating "flash drought" that is creating immediate, severe challenges for local farmers trying to navigate the fall harvest. Here is a closer look at the data driving this dry down, and when we m

TODAY: I'm tracking a decaying line of showers and storms moving in from Northwestern Missouri this morning that could bring activity for some, but coverage is expected to continue to decrease, leaving most dry by the late morning as temperatures begin in the mid-60s. By the afternoon, slightly more sunshine will peek through clouds along and south of I-70 as temperatures warm into the upper 80s and winds shift into the northwest at 5-10 mph. For areas north of I-70, storm chances will still be
The reason why wet roads are slicker after a long dry spell (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It is an experience almost every driver has had: after weeks of dry, sunny weather, dark clouds roll in, rain begins to coat the windshield, and the moment you tap your brakes, your tires feel loose. It can be surprising. How can even a gentle shower cause just as much sliding and skidding as a torrential downpour on an already soggy day? The answer comes down to a dangerous combination of road chemistry and vehicle physics. Pavement looks solid, but under a microscope, asphalt is filled with ti
