Alison Bourey, 78, has run more than 50 marathons in her life. But training for next month's Honolulu Marathon almost cost her everything...until a group of Parkway North teachers stepped in. bit.ly/47DqAHc

Peaceful protestors took to Tamm Avenue this afternoon, hoping to get their message across to commuters on I-64 down below. I spoke with one woman about why she chose to fly a Mexican flag at the protest. @KMOV

Here are some photos from a passenger who tells me they were on the inbound flight that slid off the taxiway at Lambert. They tell me it felt like they hit a slick spot and were unable to stop in time, coming to a rest in the grass. No one was injured. @KMOV

Shortly after landing around 11a, this GoJet Airlines jet slid off the taxiway at Lambert, coming to a rest in this grassy area. No injuries reported by the 27 people on board, who were then escorted to the terminal. Flight was inbound from Washington-Dulles. @KMOV

With 1 inch left on the ground this morning, that makes 14 straight days with snow on the ground in St Louis. That's the most in 20+ years. With several more cold days ahead, it's likely we'll reach 18 or 19 days, nearing the Top 10 longest stretches with snow on the ground.
