Several Missouri fire departments sent to West Plains to assist crews with dangerous flooding
WEST PLAINS, Mo. (KY3) – The City of West Plains experienced heavy flooding Friday after severe storms dropped several inches of rain across the region.
A Missouri State Highway Patrol trooper shared video with KY3 of a car dealership underwater, where you can only see the tops of some cars.
The Howell County Emergency Management tells KY3 there have been roughly five or six water rescues in West Plains. The emergency manager also said a woman was hit by lightning in Moody, Mo., and was taken to the hospital.
The West Plains School District says the middle school FEMA shelter is open for residents.
The Joplin Fire Department says its swiftwater rescue team has been requested to join a task force to help West Plains. The task force also includes crews from Redings Mill, Neosho, Carl Junction, Logan-Rogersville, and Battlefield fire departments.

”The voters, and now the Court, have spoken. It’s time to fully implement Prop A,” Mike Draper, owner of a RAYGUN clothing and design store in Kansas City, said in a statement.
In its written ruling, the Supreme Court said the initiative’s summary statement was sufficient and fair and those suing had failed to present any evidence that voters were misled. Any omissions in the cost estimate were not substantial enough to require a new election, the court said.
Business groups also had claimed the ballot initiative violated a state constitutional requirement to contain only a single subject and clear title. The Supreme Court declined to consider that argument, saying it must first be brought up in a lower court.
