Shower chance on Tuesday
METEOROLOGIST LUKE VICKERY. WITH THE ACCURATE FORECAST, YOU CAN TRUST. WELL, TOMORROW WE GOT SOME SPOTTY RAIN CHANCES HERE IN THE FORECAST. WE’VE ACTUALLY HAVE TUESDAY AS AN IMPACT WEATHER DAY. SO FROM ABOUT 2 TO 8 P.M. I’D SAY THAT’S YOUR WINDOW WHERE MAYBE YOU’RE GOING TO WANT TO HAVE THE UMBRELLA HANDY IF YOU’RE GOING TO BE OUTSIDE. THERE IS SOME LIMITING FACTORS, THOUGH. INITIALLY THERE’S GOING TO BE DRY SURFACE AIR. WE HAD A COLD FRONT COME THROUGH TODAY AND THE AIR NEAR THE GROUND IS DRY. THERE’S GOING TO BE MOISTURE ALOFT THOUGH, SO THAT RAIN IS GOING TO TRY TO FALL THROUGH THE UPPER LEVELS OF THE ATMOSPHERE. ONCE IT GETS TO THE GROUND, IT’S GOING TO EVAPORATE. INITIALLY. I THINK ONCE WE GET TO ABOUT 2:00, WE’LL START SEEING MAYBE SOME SPRINKLES THROUGH PARTS OF THE VIEWING AREA. SO JUST TO PLAY IT SAFE, HAVE THE UMBRELLA HANDY, ALTHOUGH I DON’T THINK IT’S A GUARANTEE EVERYONE GETS LIGHT SHOWERS FOR TOMORROW. LET’S SHOW YOU THIS ON STORM PREDICTOR BRIEFLY SO YOU DON’T START WITH RAIN ON TUESDAY. BUT ONCE YOU GET INTO THE AFTERNOON, CLOUDS THICKEN UP A LOT MORE AND THERE’S YOUR LIGHT SHOWERS. AGAIN, THEY’RE NOT THUNDERSTORMS. NO SEVERE THREAT, JUST SOME LIGHT SHOWERS THROUGH THE AFTERNOON AND MAYBE THE EVENING HOURS BY 7 OR 8:00. WE’RE DONE WITH THAT STUFF. IT WILL BE CLOUDY THOUGH AND IT IS CLOUDY RIGHT NOW OUTSIDE OUR CURRENT TEMPERATURES 48 DEGREES. IT WAS MUCH WARMER OUTSIDE WHEN YOU WOKE UP THIS MORNING WITH TEMPERATURES IN THE 60S. THAT COLD FRONT MET BUSINESS AS IT WENT THROUGH, AND IT BROUGHT THE NORTHWEST WIND THAT BROUGHT GUSTY WINDS THROUGH THE LATE AFTERNOON AND EVENING. SO TODAY, WE’RE NOT UNDER A SEVERE WEATHER RISK, AS MENTIONED. BUT I DO WANT TO HIGHLIGHT ONE AREA SOUTH OF SAINT LOUIS BECAUSE THEY’RE UNDER A MODERATE RISK. THAT WOULD BE A LEVEL FOUR OUT OF FIVE. YOU ONLY GET A HANDFUL OF THOSE TYPE RISKS DURING THE SEASON. SO, YOU KNOW, IF THE STORM PREDICTION CENTER PUTS THAT OUT, THEY REALLY MEAN IT WHEN IT COMES TO STRONG STORMS. AND YOU CAN SEE THERE ALONG THE COLD FRONT GETTING NEAR THE BOOTHEEL OF MISSOURI, THOSE ARE SOME STRONG THUNDERSTORMS. WE ARE ON THE COOLER SIDE OF THE SYSTEM. THE MORE STABLE SIDE OF THIS SO THE COOLER AIR IS GOING TO STAY WITH US FOR TOMORROW AS WELL. THE CLOUDS ARE GOING TO BE OVERHEAD BY THE MORNING HOURS, AND THERE’S OUR SPOTTY SHOWER CHANCE THAT MIGHT BE INTERMITTENT THROUGH THE DAY. BUT AGAIN, ONCE IT BEATS OUT THAT DRY AIR, I THINK SOME OF US ARE GOING TO GET THOSE SPOTTY SHOWERS THROUGH THE AFTERNOON HOURS. THERE’S TUESDAY NIGHT HIGH PRESSURE WILL TAKE OVER THAT WILL CLEAR OUT THE SKIES. AND BY THE TIME WE GET TO WEDNESDAY MORNING SUNSHINE TO START THE DAY, THEN MAYBE SOME CLOUDS COMING BACK FOR THE EVENING AND EVEN LOWER SHOWER CHANCE FOR WEDNESDAY. SO HERE’S THE NEXT TWO DAYS IN THE FORECAST AGAIN. TUESDAY. IMPACT WEATHER THE CHANCE OF SHOWERS DURING THE MIDDLE PARTS OF THE DAY. THE WIND WILL BE CALMER FOR TOMORROW, BUT TIME OUTSIDE WILL JUST GO TO THE OKAY CATEGORY BECAUSE OF THE SHOWERS THAT WILL LIKELY BE THERE THROUGH PART OF THE AREA. WEDNESDAY. A HIGH TEMPERATURE OF 63 DEGREES, AN IMPROVEMENT IN TEMPERATURES, IMPROVEMENT IN RAIN CHANCES AND THE WINDS STAY LIGHT AND WE GET MORE SUNSHINE BACK. SO WEDNESDAY LOOKS LIKE A PRETTY DECENT DAY. YOU CAN PRETTY MUCH COPY AND PASTE THAT OVER TO THURSDAY AND FRIDAY. SATURDAY TEMPERATURES START CREEPING BACK UP. AND THEN BY SUNDAY I MEAN THAT WEATHER LOOKS REALLY NICE OUTSIDE, SO WE LIKE IT WHEN THE NICE WEATHER FALLS ON THE WEEKENDS. ONE THING I WILL HIGHLIGHT AS WELL IS LOW TEMPERATURES, ESPECIALLY WEDNESDAY MORNING, SATURDAY MORNING. FRIDAY MORNING WILL BE COLD ENOUGH TO WEAR SOME RURAL AREAS COULD GET A FROST, SO I WOULD HOLD OFF ON PLANTING THAT GARDEN JUST MAYBE UNTIL NEXT WEEK. BUT A POSSIBLE TOP TEN DAY ON SATURDAY IF WE CAN GET HIGH ENOUGH.
