The National Weather Service has confirmed that the heavy damage in the southwestern Missouri town of Branson was caused by a 22-mile-long tornado.

A Taney County man is listed in critical condition at a Springfield hospital after his car fell an estimated 50 feet or more into a ravine where he was trapped for about five hours, officials said.

There are more than just morels out there. The recently formed Springfield Chapter of the Missouri Mycological Society -- mycology being the study of fungi -- held a hunt on Sunday at Valley Water Mill Park to find, not just morels, but a rich variety of mushrooms.
