Feeling like spring through Thursday
TONIGHT: Clouds from the southwest will stream into Mid-Missouri and bring a spot shower chance for areas south of HWY 50 from 2-7 AM. The cloudy skies will keep us about 15 degrees warmer, as lows bottom out near 35 degrees with south winds up to 10 mph.
WEDNESDAY: It will be a mild Valentine’s Day as temperatures climb to near 60 by mid-afternoon under mostly cloudy skies. It will be a bit breezy in the afternoon with southwesterly winds at 10-15 mph, gusting to 20 mph at times. The weather will stay pleasant for evening plans, only dropping to near 50 degrees by 10 PM.
EXTENDED: We’ll continue to have a break from the cold weather with a mild night Wednesday as lows only drop to near 50. We’ll have another mild, breezy day Thursday as we reach into the low to mid 60s before another cold front moves through the region. This will lead to falling temperatures late in the day, with the chance for some rain showers. Spotty showers are possible in the morning, but become more likely by the afternoon with light rainfall amounts. Under a tenth inch of rain is expected north of I-70 with up to three tenths possible near I-44. Colder air moves in Thursday night and it will be much colder by Friday morning as we start the day in the mid 20s and only reach the mid 30s for highs. The drop in temperatures will be brief as next weekend highs will rise back in the 40s and 50s under partly cloudy skies with rain chances returning Monday into Tuesday.
