An upper ridge will build into the area today with clouds and any patchy morning fog gradually dissipating from west to east. With the light winds, things will happen slowly but the sun should warm things to near normal levels with highs in the upper 40s to the mid 50s. Clear skies and light winds are expected tonight. This may allow patchy fog to develop again, mainly in the river valleys. Low will be 20s to low 30s. The upper ridge will linger into Thursday before an upper trough pushes in Friday. A weak cold front moves in Friday night with a breezy day expected for Saturday. There may be isolated showers around but models are not in agreement with placement and/or timing yet. This front should help to mix the atmosphere and warm temps above normal starting Friday. An upper ridge returns late in the weekend for dry and continued mild conditions. FORECAST CONFIDENCE & DEVIATIONS: NBM was mainly used with this package but added the patchy fog for tonight in the Milk, Missouri and part of the Big Muddy valleys. TFJ && .AVIATION...
