IOWA -- The Northern Lights dazzled Iowans late Sunday night. A major mass coronal ejection on Sunday afternoon made its way toward the Earth just in time to interact with the atmosphere late into the night. The strength of this geomagnetic storm reached so far south that even Kansas was able to few the aurora borealis. It is very unusual for the spectacle to be seen so far south. Many central Iowa viewers shared their pictures with us. The pictures are gorgeous but when you see the Northern Lights in person they pulsate and dance across the sky.Angel Stanley - AlbiaBig Creek LakeBonnie Porter - CallenderChuck Spindler - GreenfieldCody Watts - IconiumDawn Smith - BooneJustin Stallman - NewtonRob Prendergast - GrangerSamantha Mickle - Jester ParkStacy Hardney - MingoHanan Zahid - Waterloo If you have photos or videos of the Northern Lights you'd like to share with us, send them to [email protected].Two threats of severe storms this week

ST. LOUIS, Mo. - In a private online conversation, a top St. Louis official acknowledged not only a failure in the city's outdoor warning siren system, but little money dedicated toward maintaining the system.In a 2021 conversation on Facebook, City of St. Louis Emergency Management Commissioner Sarah Russell told a citizen that there were areas of the city that were difficult for coverage with the warning system. Local musician killed in Soulard fire, friends say "We have an annual budget of $20,000 to manage the sirens. I have a deductible to pay for one siren that was knocked off its pole which is $5,000 and annual battery replacement is $17,000. That leaves $0 for other maintenance and repairs. This is an ongoing conversation I have been having with my director and throughout the budget process. Right now, there isn't a great answer for how to fix it. The parts are getting harder and more expensive to get and we just aren't getting more budget to keep up with it."City of St. L...Crews respond to fire in south St. Louis City

Sifting through receipts and debts, Matt McCune can look back through the financial debris of his bankruptcy clients’ lives. In the wreckage, he often finds a common accelerant.“Basically what I see, the people that are struggling will go to do these short-term loans to get through the day, through the week, meet the bills that need to be met,” the Denver attorney said. “When it comes time to pay the loan plus the (interest), they don’t have it, so they do another loan. So now they’re financing the original principal and the interest on another loan. It’s like reverse exponential growth.”The clients who fall into these spirals, McCune said, often need money for emergencies: brake replacements, an immediate medical bill, rent that backed up. A recent national study found that fewer than half of American adults could afford to pay a sudden $1,000 charge out of their savings.For years, Coloradans in these situations turned to payday loans ̵...Latest news
