Last night, storms raged across the Ozarks with high-speed winds, hail, and even some reports of tornado warnings or watches depending on the area. Willow Springs appears to have received more hail than other areas, even receiving it earlier than others, with listeners posting photos of golf ball or greater-sized hail.
Reports have also come in about Highway 137 in Willow Springs being closed, due to trees that have fallen along the route. The Willow Springs School system made an announcement earlier this morning stating that a pair of their bus routes will likely be late due to this impasse.
With the storm only freshly gone from the area, we advise all our listeners to proceed with caution this morning during your commutes, and, if it is safe to do so, report any other major damages or road closures to the appropriate agencies. You may also contact us by dialing 417-256-3131, or by e-mailing news@ozarkmarketingcompany.com.
Along with this article, we’ll be posting some choice pictures from listeners on social media who posted photos while the storms moved in.
Stay safe today in your travels.
