St. Louis is starting Wednesday clear and near 50 degrees, but the morning chill will give way to a sunny 79-degree afternoon. With light south winds and no rain expected, it is a classic late-October temperature swing: jacket early, short sleeves by lunch.
According to the National Weather Service, temperatures should reach the upper 70s during the afternoon. Southerly winds will be under 10 knots, and no watches, warnings or advisories are listed for the area.
Thursday Could Be The Warmest Day
Thursday looks even warmer, with sunny skies and a high near 83 degrees. A weak front could trigger a few isolated showers or a rumble of thunder, though warm, dry conditions are expected through Thursday.
