St. Louis, MO – Residents in the St. Louis area should brace for a sharp drop in temperatures starting today, with snow possible midweek. The National Weather Service warns of gusty northwest winds and daytime highs only reaching the low 40s on Tuesday.

According to the NWS, temperatures will dip further tonight, with lows dropping to 28°F. On Wednesday, there’s a 30% chance of snow, primarily before 11 a.m., as temperatures struggle to surpass 37°F. Gusts of up to 28 mph could make conditions feel even colder, prompting warnings for commuters and outdoor workers to dress warmly and stay cautious on slick roadways.

The chill lingers through Thursday, with highs near 36°F under partly sunny skies, before giving way to a slight warmup by Friday. However, the reprieve won’t last long—rain becomes likely Friday night and into Saturday. Travelers along I-64 and surrounding roads should monitor weather updates for potential icy patches midweek and heavier rain impacts by the weekend.

The cold snap highlights the region’s shift into winter, underscoring the need for proper vehicle preparation and layering up when heading outdoors. As always, drivers should carry an emergency kit and allow extra travel time during adverse weather.
