SUMMARY: Frustrations in the St. Louis area are rising due to icy roads and sidewalks. Attorney Andrea McNairy explains the legal responsibilities for snow and ice removal, noting that in Missouri, landlords are generally not required to clear it unless specified in the lease or if they have consistently done so in the past. Tenants should always check their lease for details. For homeowners associations (HOAs), failing to fulfill snow removal duties may result in breach of contract claims. However, legal recourse against municipalities for icy roads is limited, as they have protections against liability, especially during snow events.

SUMMARY: The City of Belleville is urging residents not to block snowplows during snowstorms, as parked cars can hinder plows and first responders.

Local hardware stores are seeing an increase in winter supply purchases, with items like pet-friendly ice melt selling quickly.

SUMMARY: West Virginia is leading a lawsuit against New York’s Climate Change Superfund Act, which mandates polluters to pay for environmental damage according to the fossil fuel emissions they generated from 2000 to 2018.

Critics argue that it unfairly disrupts interstate commerce and creates unnecessary costs for consumers.
