John, while tornadoes never materialized across our area this evening, very similar atmospheric conditions have caused deadly tornadoes in the past, including in December right here in Missouri. We are thankful tonight didn’t pan out as those other events did and that everyone in our community was able to spend a safe Christmas with their loved ones. 108
