Tracking unseasonably warm weather lasting through next week

TODAY: I'm tracking a cool start to the day in the low 50s before sunshine and southerly winds at 5-10 mph bring temperatures back into the upper 70s. Thin upper-level clouds will be likely through most of the day but have little impact on the forecast.

TONIGHT: I'm tracking another cool night as temperatures drop back down into the low 50s. Southerly winds at 5-10 mph and thin upper-level clouds will continue overnight.

EXTENDED: I'm tracking another warm and sunny day with thin upper-level clouds on Sunday as temperatures warm back into the upper 70s. Slightly thicker cloud cover arrives Monday and Tuesday, but no rainfall is expected. Temperatures will still start in the low 50s and top out in the mid-70s both afternoons, before more sunshine on Wednesday. By the end of the week, isolated rain chances arrive in Mid-Missouri, bringing slightly cooler weather.
