DRIER WEATHER ON THURSDAY

High pressure brings cooler and drier weather to the Ozarks on Thursday. Dewpoints in the lower 50s and upper 40s take over for a day, which will make it feel comfortable outside. Northeasterly winds will also prevent temperatures from warming above the lower to middle 70s. Overall, it will be cool to start and pleasant during the afternoon hours. Let the refreshing air in, because it's going to be heating up again over the weekend!

A LOOK AHEAD AT THE WEEKEND

We warm up ahead of the next approaching storm system. Temperatures and dewpoints will both be increasing over the weekend which will result in afternoon instability. Isolated showers and storms can't be ruled out, however, a warm lid aloft should prevent widespread development. Most places should stay dry and heat up into the middle and upper 80s.
