You can already feel a slight chill in the air. When will that little bit of coldness become actual freezing temperatures in Missouri? Based on recent history, sooner than you think.
I can't believe I'm about to write these words considering how much heat we've been dealing with this week, but parts of Missouri really could see frost this weekend. No kidding. It's coming.
If you'd like to predict the weather in Missouri, you need to listen to nature. One great example is the cry of the cicada. The fact that they've become a constant sound in the early evenings in Missouri means frost can't be that far away.
It's hard to believe that we're not that far away from Spring at this point. If some weather forecasters are right, both Missouri and Illinois can expect that season to include more frost than normal and is likely to be more stormy, too.
