Tracking a cold night, mild Wednesday

TONIGHT: Increasing clouds but clearing late, lows in the single digits.

TOMORROW: Cold to start with more sunshine in the afternoon. Highs in the lower 30s.

EXTENDED: Tomorrow morning will be cold to start the day behind a weak cold front with lows in the single digits, but the afternoon will be nice again as we approach the low 30s. Another cold front moves through tomorrow night, dropping us to the low 20s for highs on Thursday. The arctic air mass spinning to our east works back in our direction for the weekend as it dives south, putting much of the eastern half of the country under much below average temperatures. We'll see wind chills below zero on Friday morning with highs only making the mid-teens. Saturday morning is an ABC 17 Stormtrack Weather Alert Day for wind chills dropping to -10 to -15 as air temperatures will fall a few degrees below zero. We'll see some improvement on Sunday with temperatures in the 30s again, but a chance for a few light snow showers is possible Sunday night across northeast Missouri. Tuesday will bring highs back into the upper 30s to around 40 with rain possible in the evening.
