.DISCUSSION...
Hot and humid conditions will continue today with light winds and
isolated to widely scattered showers and storms mainly in the
afternoon. Shower and storm chances are near zero Wednesday. Over
the Mark Twain, afternoon humidity today and Wednesday will drop
to 40 to 55%, with humidity east of the Mississippi River
remaining around or above 60%. Winds will be so light that smoke
dispersion will be poor both days. Hot conditions will continue
over the entire region through the rest of the week, with low
chances of thunderstorms returning to the forecast for Thursday
and beyond.
