Both Missouri and Illinois have had a very mild winter so far especially as far as temperatures are concerned. That's about to change big time this weekend as both states will see the thermometer nosedive to well below zero and it's likely to stay there for awhile.
My family was thrilled to become Missouri homeowners again this year. It's easy to forget that there are certain vital things you need to do to prepare a house for the winter months and one in particular can help you avoid big trouble.
If you've ever heard Missouri's weather in March being described as "in like a lamb and out like a lion", it appears that will be true in December, too. But, it will be for a completely different reason.
It's been unseasonably warm in both Missouri and Illinois so far this Fall. If you're enjoying the heat, better soak up as much as you can as the temperatures are about to nosedive soon.
