NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SAINT LOUIS MO
140 PM CST MON NOV 17 2025
WHILE MOISTURE IS ON THE WAY, DRY AIR REMAINS IN PLACE THIS
MORNING. MEANWHILE, BREEZY SOUTHEAST WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO
DEVELOP, WITH STRONGEST SPEEDS IN CENTRAL/NORTHEAST MISSOURI. AS
A RESULT, CONFIDENCE IS INCREASING THAT THERE WILL BE A 2 TO
5 HOUR OVERLAP OF BREEZY WINDS (10-14KT SUSTAINED) AND LOW
HUMIDITY (20-30%), WHICH WILL SUPPORT ELEVATED FIRE WEATHER
CONDITIONS THIS AFTERNOON. THIS WINDOW WILL BE OPEN LONGEST IN
NORTHEAST MISSOURI AND WEST-CENTRAL ILLINOIS, AND WILL CLOSE AS
HUMIDITY QUICKLY INCREASES LATE IN THE AFTERNOON. THIS EVENING
AND OVERNIGHT, A ROUND OF SHOWERS WILL BRING SOME LIGHT WETTING
RAIN AND A FEW THUNDERSTORMS. ASIDE FROM A FEW LINGERING SHOWERS,
DRY AND RELATIVELY WARM CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TUESDAY, WITH
HIGH HUMIDITY AND VARIABLE WINDS. WIDESPREAD WETTING RAIN IS
EXPECTED BETWEEN WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY NIGHT.
