Cloudy skies and scattered rain showers are setting up a notably cool Saturday in St. Louis. Temperatures near 70 degrees early will rise only to about 76 this afternoon, with a 50% chance of rain and a few gusty moments.

The National Weather Service in St. Louis expects occasional showers through the day, with west winds of 6 to 13 mph and gusts reaching 22 mph. Rain chances increase during the afternoon, making a backup plan smart for outdoor events.

Sunday Starts Damp Then Dries Out

Sunday night looks mostly clear, with a low near 67 degrees. Monday brings a sunnier reset, with a high around 84 and lighter winds.

Sunshine Gives Way To Late-Week Storm Chances

Temperatures climb into the mid-80s Tuesday and reach the upper 80s Wednesday, with sunny skies dominating both days. The next round of showers and thunderstorms arrives Wednesday night into Thursday, followed by additional rain chances Friday as highs approach 91 degrees.

No watches or warnings are currently in effect for the St. Louis area. Drivers should stay alert for wet roads Saturday and patchy fog overnight, while anyone with outdoor plans should keep an eye on the timing of the showers.
