Tracking rain chances creeping up by the weekend

THIS AFTERNOON: Another beautiful day with partly cloudy skies and highs in the mid-upper 80s.

TONIGHT: Skies clear overnight, with temperatures falling into the mid-60s.

EXTENDED: Remnant thunderstorms out of a cold front to our north may brush into Mid-Missouri early Thursday but much of the day is expected to be dry. As this front inches closer before the weekend, we'll see a low chance for a spot storm through Friday. Should the front linger even further, rain chances will follow into Saturday. Conditions remain near seasonal as highs tick up closer to the 90 mark, and an increase in moisture will keep it feeling like the low 90s. The low-level jet may spur scattered showers and thunderstorms early next week, lending to increased rain chances. Temperatures remain somewhat seasonable, in the 80s through the next 7 days.
