.DISCUSSION...

While most of the weekend will be dry, a low chance of a wetting
rain is possible mainly across southeast Missouri and southern
Illinois through this afternoon. High mixing heights and strong
transport winds with southerly flow will allow for good dispersion
each day. A much greater risk of a widespread wetting rain then
arrives Sunday evening as a cold front slowly approaches from the
west.
