MONDAY
My early take would be to just go ahead
and write week #2 off as a casualty of winter as yet another cold air
mass will move over the region behind the front on Monday. This will
keep afternoon highs on Tuesday and Wednesday in the 40's and allow
overnight lows to fall into the middle 20's Tuesday morning and the
lower 20's and upper teens Wednesday morning. Will likely need Freeze
Warnings for these mornings due to the early blooming fruit tree that
are not affected by this weekends freeze.
WEDNESDAY
A clipper type system will move over
the eastern Ozarks Wednesday night before a warming trend finally
allows temperatures to climb into the 50's and 60's by the end of
next week and into the weekend with showers and storms possible
Friday and Friday night.
THURSDAY
THURSDAY
Gusty south winds are expected with a
continued warming trend as the remnants of the unseasonably
chilly/dry air mass shift off to the east. Still, the eastern cwfa
will see high temperatures somewhat below normal with highs in the
upper 40's to near 50, while our western cwfa could be in the mid
60's. Cloud cover with low level moisture advection is expected to
interfere with the diurnal temperature rise, particularly over our
eastern counties. Couldn't rule out some drizzle, but am not putting
that in the forecast for now.
FRIDAY
A shortwave moving into/through the
Midwest will support a trailing cold frontal passage through our area. Low level moisture will continue
to advect northward with surface dew points reaching the mid/upper 50's Fri.
Warm air aloft/capping just below 700mb limits overall instability,
so it looks like there will be a good chance for showers/isolated thunderstorms
over the far southern MO late Fri and Fri night.
SATURDAY, HOWEVER, IS SHAPING UP TO LOOK GREAT!
