St. Louis, Missouri – A frontal boundary wobbling across the central United States will bring a mix of near record warmth and frequent storm chances to the region this week.
According to the National Weather Service , areas to the south of this boundary can expect summer like heat and humidity, with temperatures potentially challenging daily records in the upper 90s. Conversely, locations closer to the front will see more frequent showers and thunderstorms that may temporarily temper the heat.
Outdoor workers and those participating in recreational activities should be prepared for rapidly changing weather conditions. The presence of high humidity increases the heat stress risk, making it important to stay hydrated throughout the day.
Monitor local radar for storm development, as the position of the front will dictate which areas see relief from the heat versus the highest probability of heavy rain.
