ST. LOUIS — For Memorial Day weekend, expect unsettling weather with increasing clouds and scattered showers across the region.
Clouds will increase today, leading to spotty showers overnight into Saturday morning. Saturday is expected to be mostly dry, with temperatures in the 60s, but rain will ramp up late Saturday night and continue through Sunday and Monday.
Travelers heading to the Lake of the Ozarks, Table Rock Lake, Roaring River State Park, or Branson should prepare for heavier rain and thunderstorms. A Flash Flood Watch is in effect for these areas, with rainfall amounts potentially reaching two to six inches by Monday afternoon. In the eastern Ozarks and the rafting rivers of southeast Missouri, there will be intermittent rain but more dry periods compared to the southwest Missouri region.
While the weekend may not offer ideal pool weather, those planning outdoor activities should be prepared for varying conditions across the region.
