When can St. Louis expect to see the first snow this year?
· Yahoo NewsST. LOUIS – Temperatures have been slowly dropping over the last few weeks, which means the area could have the possibility of seeing snowflakes in the air sooner than later.
Although temperatures will climb this weekend, a burst of cold air will reach St. Louis in the middle of next week, shifting to more typical November weather.
Next Thursday will bring a high temperature of 45 degrees. As snow moves through the northern states and Iowa, it grants the possibility of flurries throughout Thursday late and early Friday.
