St. Louis is starting Friday under clouds and a few lingering showers, with temperatures in the mid-60s before sunrise. Rain should taper by late morning as a north wind pushes in cooler, drier air. The payoff is a clean break from the unsettled weather: a sunny weekend and a dry forecast through next Thursday.
Showers Fade Friday Morning
Showers are most likely before 10 a.m., while skies stay mostly cloudy through midday. The high should reach about 71 degrees, with north winds around 13 mph; by afternoon, rain chances drop to near zero and the clouds may thin enough for some sun.
The National Weather Service in St. Louis says any additional rainfall should be limited, generally around half an inch or less where showers redevelop across the broader area. No watches, warnings or advisories are listed for Missouri or Illinois in the forecast provided.
Cooler Nights, Sunny Weekend
Friday night turns partly cloudy and noticeably cooler, with a low near 52 degrees. Saturday looks like the best outdoor day of the weekend: sunny, dry and near 74, followed by another sunny day Sunday with a high around 78.
Dry Stretch Warms Up Slowly
Monday stays sunny with a high near 72, and Tuesday should reach about 74 under clear skies. From Wednesday into Thursday, the forecast climbs into the low 80s, reaching roughly 81 Wednesday and 83 Thursday, with no rain currently expected.
This is a meaningful turn from the rain-focused forecast published Wednesday by Hoodline: Friday's showers are now the exit ramp, not the opening act for another stormy run. For St. Louis plans, the practical read is simple—bring a light jacket Friday night, then make room for sunglasses through next week.
