A Two-riffic Winter Storm

From Staff Reports

A sheet of ice, followed by two days of constant snow, left Ste. Genevieve County buried under some six inches of wintery mix.

Most businesses were closed Wednesday through Friday, including the county courthouse. Weekend events, such as the Chocolate Walk and the King’s Ball were cancelled or postponed, along with many sporting events.

The freezing rain and sleet hit on Wednesday, leaving slippery roads and sidewalks. Snow began Thursday morning, continuing into Friday, with 8-11 inches fallen.
