ST. LOUIS – We made it to 65 F on Sunday and we’ll be close to 10 degrees warmer Monday.

There will be several nice days of sunshine Sunday through Wednesday. The highs will be in the 70s. Late Wednesday, a storm will pass to the south of the St. Louis region. There is a slight chance of some rain showers south of I-70 Wednesday evening.

After a sunny and warm day Thursday, the main weather watcher of the week moves our way. This is a much stronger storm system for Friday that will likely bring some thunderstorms, possibly severe, to the region late in the day and into the night. Ahead of the storms, Friday will be windy and warm. Windy and noticeably cooler behind the storms next Saturday.

Reminder: A total lunar eclipse will take place Thursday night into Friday morning. The maximum eclipse is at 1:58am Friday.
