Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Eastern/Central MO and Southwest IL
National Weather Service Saint Louis MO
309 AM CST Sun Nov 16 2025
Very dry conditions are expected today, with more typical
temperatures and light northerly winds. Humidity levels will be
very low throughout the afternoon, but this will be mitigated by
the expected light winds, aside from some occasional gusts to
10-15 mph across Illinois. Suppressed mixing heights and light
winds may also limit ventilation. On Monday, southeast winds will
become a bit breezier, and some lingering dry air may lead to a
few pockets of elevated fire weather conditions across Illinois
and northeast Missouri early in the afternoon. Confidence remains
low in this potential, as humidity will be slowly increasing
through the day, especially where winds are strongest. Widespread
showers with some light wetting rain are expected Monday night,
followed by humid but likely warmer conditions Tuesday.
Substantial wetting rain remains likely between Wednesday and
Friday.
