More rain arrive into the second half of this week

TONIGHT: Skies will hold partly to mostly cloudy across the region this evening. Temperatures are warmer than the past few nights. Many places in Mid-MO will drop into the low 40s and upper 30s. Winds will turn out of the southeast and become gusty through Wednesday.

WEDNESDAY: Southerly winds return and clouds increase all ahead of our next chance for rain. Most rain looks to hold off until later in the day on Wednesday with the possibility of spot showers north of I-70. Temperatures in the afternoon will make it into the mid to upper 60s as we are in the warm sector of the frontal system.

EXTENDED: Rain moves in Wednesday evening, and looks to stick around for a good portion of Thursday, with a rumble of thunder possibly mixing in Thursday morning. Scattered storms are possible through the afternoon with rain moving out by Thursday evening, but cloud cover looks a little more stubborn to get rid of. It looks like we’ll see more of a mix of sun and clouds Friday and Saturday with temperatures in the middle to upper 60s Friday and low 70s by Saturday. With mostly dry conditions Saturday spot storms can’t be ruled out through the afternoon. Showers return to close out the weekend, with temperatures staying in the low 70s.
