Summer like weather for kid’s first week of summer vacation

TUESDAY: After some early fog, we’ll see mostly sunny skies with temperatures warming into the low to mid 80s as winds come in from the east up to 8 mph.

TONIGHT: We will see temperatures drop back into the mid 60s under mostly clear skies. Winds will be out of the east up to 5 mph.

EXTENDED: The dry weather continues Wednesday as we heat up into the mid to upper 80s and winds shift to the southeast under mostly sunny skies. With the recent rain, dew points will be on the high side making it feel quite muggy outside. It’s possible we could see heat indices by Wednesday climb into the lower 90s. The rainy, unsettled pattern ramps up again as we head into Thursday. A series of upper level disturbances will track along the western extent of the ridge bringing more rain chances to Mid-Missouri. The best chance of rain will stay confined to areas west of HWY 63, but as the ridge shifts off to the east, that rain will gradually track through all of Mid-Missouri by Saturday. The stormy pattern stays with us through the holiday weekend. While it won’t be a washout, storms are looking likely into Memorial Day with on and off storm chances as temperatures remain in the upper 80s. Stay tuned to ABC 17 for the latest updates to the forecast.
