Drying out by the end of the weekend

TONIGHT: Isolated showers and a few thunderstorms are possible south of I-70, otherwise it’s dry with mostly cloudy skies overnight. Lows in the low to mid-60s.

FRIDAY: Isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms in the afternoon, especially south of I-70. Highs in the low 80s.

EXTENDED: An area of low pressure to our southwest continues to track east, bringing heavy rain to far southern Missouri and Arkansas over the weekend. A few of these rain bands could slide back in to Mid-Missouri, bringing low rain chances to the area through early Sunday. No severe weather is expected, and the entire weekend won’t be a washout. As low pressure moves east early next week, we’ll see a drier pattern with cooler than average temperatures.
