Elevated Fire Danger Today

Bitterly Cold Late Tonight/Early Monday

A combination of low relative humidity, gusty southwest winds, and drought conditions will lead to elevated fire conditions over parts of southeast Missouri this afternoon. Leave any burning to the professionals.

Wind chills will drop as low as -15 degrees across parts of northeast Missouri and west central Illinois late tonight and Monday morning where a Cold Weather Advisory is in effect. Wear multiple layers of warm clothing and a hat and gloves if going out in the dangerous cold.
