Get ready for some cold weather this week in St. Louis. After a warm weekend with temperatures reaching the upper 80s and 70s, a cold front has moved in, bringing colder air with it. On Monday, temperatures will struggle to reach 60 degrees, with some clouds in the morning giving way to sunshine later in the day.
Monday night will be chilly, with temperatures dropping into the 40s and upper 30s. A bit of a breeze will help prevent frost from forming, but there may be some clouds moving in due to a trough in the atmosphere. Tuesday will be even cooler, with highs only in the mid to upper 50s. While there is a slight chance of a brief shower, it is unlikely. Skies will clear later in the day.
As we head into Wednesday morning, temperatures will fall into the 30s, leading to widespread frost. In the hills of the eastern Ozarks and across north-central and northwest Missouri, a freeze is likely. Wednesday will remain chilly, with highs near 60, and another cold night will bring frost on Thursday morning.
Temperatures will start to warm up slightly on Thursday and Friday, with a chance of rain showers on Saturday night. Be sure to bundle up and protect any sensitive plants from the cold temperatures. Stay warm, St. Louis!
