How does one commemorate the anniversary of one of the largest earthquakes in United States history? If you're the earthquake fault in southern Missouri, you celebrate by causing a tremor exactly 213 years to the day which is what just happened.
The good news is most of Illinois will begin to see warmer temperatures soon. The bad news is that warmup brings a sudden danger of ice jams for more than 20 waterways in the state.
It's too early to know for sure, but it would be a good idea to watch out for a possible major snow event in Missouri impacting right as February begins.
