Warm Fall Temperatures Continue, Dry Until the Weekend

A mix of clouds and sun throughout the Heartland on Tuesday, with above-average temperatures continuing in late October.

Short-term runs of StormCast show the chance for a brief shower or two through Tuesday night, though very few of us will likely see meaningful rainfall.

Many of us will start Tuesday morning above average in the viewing area, with overnight temperatures in the 40s and 50s.

Cloud cover will increase into early Tuesday morning in Cape Girardeau, which should help keep lows from dipping below 50 degrees.

High temperatures will reach the middle 70s under partly sunny skies on Tuesday, with winds remaining less than 5 miles per hour throughout the day.

Even with a little cloud cover, we shoud see pleansant fall temperatures in Cape for Tuesday afternoon.

Winds out of the south pick up slighlty on Wednesday, briniging high temperatures to the upper 70s and lower 80s.

While the quiet weather will be nice, changes lie ahead for Halloween weekend. Rain chances return to the forecast on Saturday and will look to continue into early November. Keep up to date with the latest forecast as the timing and location of precipitation this weekend becomes more clear.
