As we head into the weekend, enjoy the warming trend because there's a good chance that what's looming for our weather picture will be less favorable.

Friday, January 31, 2025 Forecast

As we head into the weekend, today's weather isn't that good. Light rain and drizzle are expected to linger through late morning, and dense fog is possible in some areas. We can also expect breezy conditions with wind gusts around 20-25 miles per hour.

Our forecaster, Weatherology, says temperatures will remain steady in the lower mid-40s throughout the day before falling into the 30s overnight.

Warming Trend Will Start February Off

The National Weather Service predicts a warming trend throughout the weekend after temperatures dipping to around freezing early Saturday morning. They predict a high of 53 on Saturday, 60 on Sunday, 50 on Monday, 47 on Tuesday, and 50 on Wednesday. Additionally, if you're looking to get outside this weekend, dry conditions are expected from Saturday through the middle of next week.

Weatherology predicts a high of 53 on Saturday, 62 on Sunday, 56 on Monday, 45 on Tuesday, and 53 on Wednesday, with scattered showers possible.

Here's What's Looming For  Missouri from February 7 - 13

As we move into the second week in Missouri, the forecast becomes less pleasant. The good news is that it doesn't seem like a significant snow or ice event is headed our way—at least, the National Weather Service and Weatherology aren't discussing the potential for that.

The National Weather Service says West Central Missouri can expect below-normal temperatures and above-normal precipitation for early February.

So get out, wash your car, run errands, and enjoy the pleasant temperatures. While we might not get socked with another round of snow, above-normal precipitation and below-normal temperatures make me think it will be hot coffee and hoody weather.
