Come see us at 4th & Main! Joplin’s Third Thursday! 🌟
Two years today. ❤️🩹 The morning my dad went to the hospital for the very last time, we thought the news would be he was going to be transferred to hospice care. I was walking my dogs, praying about what was the inevitable, and my phone buzzed with a notification from my Google Photos app. It had automatically generated this for me, and I knew what was about to happen instead. A few minutes after I got home from the dog walk, my mom had told me my dad passed. I’ve held onto this for two years now, but thought I’d finally share it. Hug your dads, especially if you have a really, really good one ❤️
HOLY MOLY. I live near the Route 66 drive-in theater… And I’ve never ever seen it like this. It’s backed up all the way almost to the highway. They must be showing something good! (Spoiler alert: They’re showing Twisters 🌪️)
Looks like the Marian Days tents are going up one by one!
The ball fields in Landreth Park reportedly flooded this morning. Waters have receded already but you can see the debris line and estimate just how much the water rose over the roadway and onto this parking lot.
That’s the thing about flash flooding that makes it so dangerous… it rises quickly and then recedes just as quickly.
hi, friends! 👋🏻 NOTHING severe as of 3:30am…. But IT. IS. LOUD. Lots of lightning, thunder, and torrential rain.
RAIN, GLORIOUS RAIN! 🙌🏻☔️
The weirdest colored sky ever in Carthage right now. 😳
Go, husband, go! Trying to stay cool while slightly out of town today!
Hope you all are having a great Saturday ✨
It’s #NexstarFoundersDay and our #DayofCaring, where our station and stations across the nation give back to their communities in many different ways. Some of us are at the Joplin Area Habitat for Humanity REStore, while others are at the Joplin Library for the blood drive! We don’t take lightly the commitment to our community! ❤️ Thank you for allowing us to be such an integral part of the community!
Went to a car show… I, of course, found the only dog here 🥰🐾
👀 It’s really dangerous sending me to live shots at the Joplin Humane Society… I want them all 😩 But I can’t so that’s where YOU come in…. COME ON DOWN!
✨ They’re open until 7pm and ADOPTIONS ARE FREE all weekend.
🐾 It’s our KSN/KODE Dog Days of Summer Adoption Event sponsored by Frank Fletcher Subaru.
Well… winter’s back 🥶🥶🥶🥶 It’s cold and windy out here at Third Thursday!
Morning assessment - Grateful this is our only “damage.” Our home was tornado warned last night just outside Carthage city limits, and the neighbors seem to have some very minor damage, as well.
Mimi: Sees a dog roaming across the street and MUST bark.
Lisbeth: Does not like when her fur-sister barks, so she complains.🥲
❄️ Big, fat flakes! ❄️ And a snow dog 🐺
Taking the scenic route from Fort Scott back to the news station 🍃
Bless their hearts 🥹 You can see Liz slip in the back, post-potty time. The GREAT news is that temps will soon warm and roads, sidewalks, and parking lots should start to improve. (8:20am update)
