National Weather Service Saint Louis MO
1228 AM CST Tue Mar 3 2026

A stalled frontal boundary wobbles north and south through the
region this week. As it does so it will bring multiple rounds of
showers and thunderstorms to the region. Daily temperatures and
mixing depth will vary based on where this front is, but overall
conditions are expected to be humid all the way through the end
of the week.
