Dog causes Page County accident

News

October 2nd, 2013 by Ric Hanson

A dog running out of a ditch in Page County Tuesday morning caused an accident that sent one person to the hospital. Page County Sheriff Lyle Palmer reports a 1994 Ford Mustang driven by 18-year old Brandon Meyers, of Clarinda, was traveling west on 230th Street at around 8:20-a.m., when Meyers swerved to avoid a dog that came onto the road.

The car went out of control and entered the south ditch before it came to rest after hitting a tree. Meyers was transported to the Clarinda Hospital for treatment of non-incapacitating injuries. Damage to the car was estimated at $5,000. No citations were issued.

Big change in the weather on the way

News, Weather

October 2nd, 2013 by Ric Hanson

The warm and sunny conditions around Iowa are about to change. Kurt Kotenberg is a meteorologist at the National Weather Service. “We’re going to go, basically, from 80s and sunshine the past couple days, to stormy Thursday and especially Friday, to cloudy, cold and gloomy for this weekend,” Kotenberg says.

Clouds will be on the increase across the state tonight, with some areas possibly receiving rain. A better chance for rain arrives tomorrow (Thursday). “Especially from around the Des Moines metro area and locations to the north, we’ve got a 60 to 70 percent chance (of rain),” Kotenberg says. “Heading into Friday, we have a greater chance of strong to severe thunderstorms across much of Iowa. We’ll definitely be watching that closely.”

More fall-like temperatures will arrive on Saturday. “Saturday will be pretty cloudy all day, kind of a very raw November-like day…kind of drizzling all day and cold,” Kotenberg says. “Temperatures will struggle to reach the mid to upper 50s and it will be windy also.”

Winds on Saturday will be between 15 and 25 miles per hour, according to Kotenberg. Sunday’s forecast calls for a clear to partly cloudy sky and highs mainly in the 50s.
