Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Eastern/Central MO and Southwest IL
National Weather Service Saint Louis MO
219 PM CST Tue Nov 18 2025
A low pressure system is currently over the forecast area, with
northeasterly winds toward west-central IL, northwesterly winds
in NE and central MO, and southwesterly winds in southerly MO and
IL. A cold front associated with this low will zip through the
region this afternoon, turning all winds to the north-northwest.
The cold front will also usher slightly lower dewpoints and
cooler temperatures back into the forecast area for Wednesday and
Thursday. Rain will move back into the area on Thursday and will
persist into Friday.
