ST. LOUIS – We enjoyed a beautiful Wednesday. Thank you to all who joined us at Busch Stadium for Weather Day! Unfortunately, our weather is changing as we head into a holiday weekend.
We’ve had showers and non-severe storms overnight. A second round of rain and some storms will move in mid- to late Thursday morning. The rain is expected to dry out and clear out into the afternoon. High temperatures on Thursday will be well into the 70s, with breezy conditions. After a clear evening, skies will become partly cloudy by daybreak.
We stay warm as wake up temperatures Friday will be in the 60s. Friday is expected to be warm, breezy, and dry, with high temperatures pushing into the 80s. A cold front will arrive later Friday afternoon, and rain chances will ramp back up.
Rain and thunderstorms, some possibly strong to severe, will arrive Friday evening and night. The strong storms could produce some strong wind gusts and up to quarter-size hail.
The cold front slows and stalls to our south into Saturday and that will bring us waves of rain and storms through Easter weekend. The heaviest rain looks to be on Saturday, but the pattern lingers through Monday morning.
Rainfall totals over the next several days could reach 3 inches in many spots. Minor to moderate river flooding is possible due to this rainfall.
