The Friday night registration is set to begin in Hamel tonight at 5 PM, about an hour and forty minutes from now. We’re just thirty minutes northeast, but Madison County is currently under a Tornado Warning as some horrible weather moves through the Saint Louis metro area. And there’s more on the other side of the river waiting.
Update, 3:45 PM: The weather seems to be weakening a bit, and the trailing storms down 66 in Springfield are far less threatening. All of the rain is supposed to fizzle out by early Saturday, leaving us with a mostly dry Motor Tour. We can hope.
