Joplin, MO deserves a tranquil fall. |
Missouri sits at the cross-roads of cold air coming down from Canada...tropical air coming up from Gulf/Florida...and the fast westerly upper air flow. So not too suprising that the weather can get so wild. I'm spent weather-wise too (lol). Here in the Middle Atlantic states we've had record snow in winter, record heat (the temp in my greenhouse hit 140 F and cracked the roof), and a tornado not far away killed 8 people. I'm ready for some tranquil weather myself!
