Yessir, I'm only an hour from the Bootheel of MO. Our standard winds from the Northwest tend to come from the Arkansas and MO area. We're considered the "Mid South" I call it the Dirty South!
We will get those nasty ice storms in small areas some years and that shuts down the rural areas!! OR, we may have a Killing Tornado in January!! I lost a good friend to one back in then 90's. RIP Terry. He and I had some great times on travel and golfing trips. He got his wife and one grown so that had his girlfriend over and they barely made it to the bathroom, then it caught the place and churned it up so badly that his wife was still in the hospital and couldn't even attend his funeral. They added seven large (near 1000 lb spheres) in a downtown park area in memory of the seven lost in Jackson, TN and a few years later, another tornado hit and blew one of those giant stones from it's cupped perch!!! I said, "Well, that one's Terry, for sure. He was always a rolling stone!", hehe.
