Cloudy and spotty showers to end the workweek.
TODAY: Increasing clouds this morning will bring an end to the sunny skies we’ve seen all week across Mid-Missouri. This comes as tropical moisture tracks in from the south, which will bring spotty rain showers as we head through at least early afternoon. Showers will mainly be along and south of I-70, with better coverage near I-44. Rainfall amounts will be up to a trace north of I-70, with areas south of 70 seeing anywhere from .01″ to .25″. Despite the clouds and light rain, southwesterly winds up to 15 mph will help temperatures rise to ner 60 degrees today.
TONIGHT: Clouds will gradually clear out as we head into the night, as a cold front tracks through the region. Overnight lows will only bottom out in the mid 40s, with winds shifting out of the northwest up to 11 mph.
EXTENDED: Overnight lows Friday drop into the mid 40s will create a cool start if you’re heading out to the Homecoming Parade at 9 AM Saturday. Temperatures will warm to near 60 Saturday afternoon with mostly sunny and it will be breezy, with northwesterly winds at 10-15 mph, gusting to 30 mph at times. Saturday night will be colder with widespread frost as lows dip into the low 30s. The sunny, dry weather continues Sunday but it will be cooler with highs in the mid 50s. Highs into the beginning of next week rebound into the low to mid 60s Monday Tuesday but another cold front will cool us down a bit again for next Wednesday with a chance of rain Wednesday night into Thursday.
