Here are some of the events happening this weekend!
In the last week, the Sedalia area has gotten more than two feet of snow. Activities have been cancelled, schools closed and places of employment have shut down. The secondary roads have proven a challenge if they are passable at all. Add to that the fact that many people lost power along the way. That's when it happens. The kids look to their parents and say those two words that elicit the same response as fingernails on a chalkboard. Their tiny voices look up and say "I'm bored."
What did you do to beat boredom during the recent snowstorms?
Mother nature has dumped a ton of snow on Mid-Missouri recently, making for some wild weather and great photo opportunities. We want you to share your snowy photos with us! Send us your snowman, your car buried with snow, your best snow angel or any other photos you'd like to share, and we'll put them in our winter photo gallery on the website.
Kids, you've heard it, and I'm sure you're dreading it. After we got all that snow next week, the scuttlebutt is we're getting another big snowstorm this evening and Tuesday.
So you pretty much know by now what to do if you get snowed in. You're pretty well prepared by now, because of last week. So now you've got to really sit and think about what's next: What NOT to do.
Here's a look at the stuff going on this weekend!
There will be plenty to do in Sedalia for St. Patrick's Day. Most places are observing the day everyone is Irish on Saturday the 16th. It all starts with a parade.
Kids, we're going to be getting what they're calling a "storm" this week. Apparently there is going to be some kind of snowy stuff happening, maybe some icy stuff. So what is the last thing you want to do when you're done shoveling and salting and all that business? Cook.That's totally not what I would want to do either. So why not let someone else do the work for you, and get a tasty dinner in the process?
Could the last gasp of winter be coming this week? The National Weather Service is predicting snow to impact this area on Wednesday night (Feb. 20) and Thursday (Feb. 21). A Winter Storm Watch has been issued, and they are projecting that a bulk of the snow should be north of Highway 36, while I-70 and Highway 50 areas could get a lot of ice, sleet and snow.
You walk in to the Matthewson Exhibition Center and see dirt covering the arena floor. It is mounded up in places and the old cars are in place. The kids are all excited because they see what is in each corner of the floor. "Shock Therapy," "Ground Pounder," "God, Guts and Glory," and "Nail It," are waiting to roar to life at the Monster Truck Racing Super Series and deliver a show that includes Chicago style racing, freestyle competition and a monster truck wheelie contest. Plus the Tuff Trux - Pro Stadium Trucks direct from TV will go over the obstacle course and Pro Quad Racers will race motocross.
