What a country! Our inmates at the jail are so excited they got their "covid relief" stimulus checks. Commissary orders will be going wild @JeffCoMoSheriff Jail. I know you are excited for them too right?!
So last year 37,000 Americans died from the common Flu. It averages between 27,000 and 70,000 per year. Nothing is shut down, life & the economy go on. At this moment there are 546 confirmed cases of CoronaVirus, with 22 deaths. Think about that!

A strong cold front will move through the region today bringing in much colder air. With the much colder temps and gusty NW winds, wind chill indices will be in the single digits far south to between -10 and -15 in portions of NE MO and west central IL. #mowx#ilwx
