The Heat which has gripped the Lakes Region will continue for most of this coming week but National Weather Service Forecasters do see relief arriving by the end of the week.
The Heat Advisory remains in effect for southern Missouri through Tuesday while the entire region will see heat index readings continue to be 100 or higher. While some isolated showers and thunderstorms are possible, more significant rain is expected by the end of the week as a frontal boundary will finally break through the ridge of high pressure that has kept the heat in place.
Forecasters see high temperatures getting back into the upper 80s to around 90 and overall trending at or slightly below normal for the following week.
