The city of Saint Louis woke up to overcast skies and a blanket of humidity this morning, with visibility sitting at a modest eight miles. As the chilly wind from the north chases through the streets, residents can expect the cloud cover to gradually part, allowing temperatures to rise to a more comfortable high near 57 degrees, according to a weather update from the National Weather Service.
Patchy fog is expected after 4am tonight, signaling a turn in weather conditions. The fog, lurking in silence, will likely clear up by mid-morning on Washington's Birthday, hinting at a day spent under a mostly sunny sky. The anticipated high is near 63 with gentle breezes shifting from the southwest, which will play its part in ushering in a warmer and clearer day.
Looking ahead to Monday night, Saint Louis is predicted to be enveloped in mostly cloudy conditions, with a low around 43 degrees. These porcine clouds, hanging low as if feeding on the light urban smog, may obscure the stars but should not bring immediate rain according to the forecast. Residents can expect the same pattern of weather to continue into Tuesday, offering a high near 65 degrees with some gusty winds to contend with.
As we approach the middle of the week, the city is set to bask in a day of mostly sunny skies, with Wednesday's thermometer potentially stretching to a high near 71. The evening is expected to stay mostly clear with temperatures dipping to a low around 46. The rest of the week holds a small chance of showers and a mix of sunny spells and clouds, with the weekend showing promise for mostly sunny days, albeit with slightly cooler highs near 50 degrees.
