National Weather Service Saint Louis MO
307 PM CDT Fri Sep 20 2024

.DISCUSSION...

A cold front is currently moving southeast through the forecast
area, but it will buckle back northward overnight. Shifting fronts
will keep the wind direction changing over the next few days, but
the dominant direction will be southerly. There is a chance of
showers and thunderstorms every day through Tuesday. The
atmosphere will be unstable each day through the weekend with high
relative humidity and above average temperatures, but will become
stable again early next week with the loss of both moisture and
heat.
