Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Eastern/Central MO and Southwest IL
National Weather Service Saint Louis MO
319 PM CST Mon Nov 17 2025

Humidity increases sharply tonight as a warm front lifts
northeast through the region. A few showers and thunderstorms
will occur with this front, but only minor rain amounts are
expected. After high humidity to start the day on Tuesday, a cold
front shifts winds to the north and brings cooler and slightly
drier air in later in the day. This seasonably cool air mass
lasts the rest of the week. Multiple rounds of soaking rain are
expected mainly over the Ozarks into southern Illinois Wednesday
night through late Friday.
