(ST. JOSEPH, Mo) Paramedics Jeff Wyrick and Jordan Lebahn are giving above and beyond their normal duties.

The pair is using their spare time to volunteer at vaccine clinics to help adminster vaccine shots.

While they are doing this in their spare time, they are happy to give back to the community.

"So for me to be out here able to help the community to give back to the people that help to pay for us to do what we do.. Just feels good, said Lebahn.

"Just getting to see smiles on people's faces. It does give people hope and you kinda take a little bit of that smile away with you as you go," said Wyrick.

Wyrick and Lebahn say they are always happy to interact with people and will continue to continue to volunteer at the vaccine clinic.

They both agree that volunteering is a good way to interact with the public and that it is nice to see the community during their good days and not during an emergency.

The forecast for today will be very similar to yesterday, but just a couple degrees warmer although we are still staying relatively cool for this time in August. The air quality is much better today with the haze starting to clear out of the area. Tonight will be cool and calm with lows in the mid 60s and light winds. There is a slight chance for isolated showers tonight and tomorrow afternoon, although most of the area should stay dry. Dry and sunny conditions continue into the weekend as temperatures start to warm up again. Highs look to stay in the 80s until midweek and then start to climb into the 90s as we head into the weekend.
