Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Eastern/Central MO and Southwest IL
National Weather Service Saint Louis MO
310 AM CST Sun Dec 28 2025
Above normal temperatures will continue through most of the day
today ahead of an approaching cold front that will bring showers
and thunderstorms to portions of the area. Those that receive
rain will likely (70-80%) see less than 0.10" of rain due to the
quick moving system. Winds will shift from southwesterly to
northwesterly behind the front. Temperatures will drop
significantly behind the front, with highs on Monday largely less
than 30 degrees before moderating to near normal on Wednesday.
