Tracking light rain over the weekend, warming up next week
TONIGHT: Mostly clear to partly cloudy with lows in the lower 40s.
TOMORROW: Increasing clouds with highs in the low to mid-60s.
EXTENDED: I'm tracking low pressure across Texas that will meander in our direction over the weekend, spreading clouds across the region tomorrow. That keeps us in the lower 40s by morning, and temperatures are limited to the lower to mid-60s during the day. Rain holds off until evening, with scattered showers continuing into Sunday. Rain will be light and somewhat intermittent, with the best chance for higher amounts along and south of I-44. We'll end up around 0.25" mark across most of Mid-Missouri through Sunday night. Next week will bring a big warm up with temperatures getting into the upper 60s with more sunshine for Halloween. The upper jet stream will bring winds from the southwest for much of the week, bringing temperatures into the lower 70s through Friday. Winds pick up at the end of the week as a strong low pressure system moves across the Rockies and brings a chance at rain and storms on Friday or Saturday. Rain amounts look higher with this system, and there may​ even be a few strong storms depending on how it all plays out. We'll keep an eye on it over the coming days, but we're tracking the potential for 1-1.5" of rain between Friday and Saturday.
