Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Eastern/Central MO and Southwest IL
National Weather Service Saint Louis MO
245 AM CDT Fri May 31 2024

.DISCUSSION...

Today will be largely dry, with rain chances slowly increasing
from southwest to northeast late this afternoon into tonight.
Ahead of this, mixing heights will be upwards of 6kft with at
least fair dispersion rates. Widespread wetting rain is likely
(greater than 80% chance), with a few thunderstorms embedded in
the stratiform shield. Rain chances slowly end from west to east
on Saturday, leading to largely-dry conditions through Sunday.
Temperatures and humidity begin to warm closer to normal by then,
with low chances for rain impacting the region through mid-week.
