Brief Pictorial: The Missouri River on a Sub-Freezing December Day



T
hese photos were taken yesterday afternoon on the banks of the Missouri River from Young Park in Riverside.


Note the ice floes.

Ice dams on this or any other stream can cause flooding in the winter- something we'll be watching for as we "officially" begin winter next week on December 21.

A significant winter storm continues to show on the weather models in the days before Christmas with chances for lighter snows up to the New Year.
