      I was born and raised 30 minutes from where I am now in Missouri. I was born in November in the 1940s and this kind of weather was common from November through March. It snowed sometimes for days. School wasn't called off and for most of the storms life went on as usual. Oh and stores didn't run out of food like they do these days. Now the weather patterns have shifted so drastically people panic, schools close and stores run out of food at the mention of snow. People have no idea these days how really easy they have it. 😉 Happy New Year from an old lady in Missouri. ✨️

    ST. LOUIS COLD WIND, SNOW, ICE & MORE - 2025**
    A good poem like a cardinal
    Is pregnant with song.
    You can’t help but hear its message
    As it sings what's right or wrong.
    Over the heads of all I meet
    Falls winter's life giving snow.
    Upon the rooftops and the streets
    Filling the sky and earth below.
    Dancing, swirling, skimming along,
    Like the snows of yesteryears.
    There's lots of ice on the windows
    As my lashes freeze over with tears.
    It's so cold; it's too cold to snow
    Yet the snow continues to fall.
    The land is covered blanket white
    As the winter winds wail their call.
    There's a red-hot fire awaiting me
    That will thaw out my every part.
    It's not the glow of a fireplace
    But the love that dwells in my heart.

    This isn’t even that big of a storm. If there were competent experienced directors running MoDOT and the counties the roadways would be just wet. How is it that road crews in states where they have blizzards can keep the roadways wet and or at least drivable during one but we get a few inches and it practically shuts down the area? It stopped snowing hours ago and all the highways are still not drivable.
