Rain and Cooler Temps In The Forecast

I'm not sure which way the seasons are creeping. Is Summer plodding along as it leaves us for another year or is it Autumn that's dragging it's feet as it begins on Monday?

Another hot and muggy day today before the gradual cool down heading into the weekend. While temperatures decrease, rain and storm chances will increase with highs in the upper 70s and heavy rain possible by Sunday. This afternoon and evening could see few isolated to scattered storms, primarily across central and northern Missouri, but better chances for storms and heavy rain will arrive Friday and continue through Sunday.
