The jet stream is digging southward over our heads this weekend, dragging the chilliest air this season down from Canada and helping developing tropical storm "Danny" to stay mostly at sea.
This pattern will give us lows in the fifties for the entire seven day forecast! The coolest point will be Monday when widespread forties are likely in the Ozarks. The record low for Springfield that morning is 48 and we will be quite close.
The weekend will stay much below normal. Highs will stay in the seventies; a pattern which will last through most, if not all, of next week.
