SUMMARY: Today will be rainy with off-and-on showers and a chance of thunderstorms, while breezy conditions may create gusts up to 20 mph. Temperatures will remain seasonable in the upper 50s, reaching a high of 60 degrees. The rain is part of a larger system moving from Louisiana to Minnesota. For outdoor activities, be cautious of thunder. Tonight, showers will gradually end with a low of 53 degrees. Looking ahead, Veterans Day will feature sunny weather and temperatures around 67 degrees, before a few showers return on Wednesday. Overall, today is our only wet day this week.

Most of the smaller rivers, that had flooding problems, have now started to fall. The Meramec River is expected to fall below flood stages by Sunday night, even with the additional rain Saturday. The Mississippi and Missouri Rivers remain well within the banks as both have been running low and can handle the amount of rain flowing into them since last weekend.

Our Saturday will be on the rainy side. Showers will pick up for the afternoon. There will be a few isolated storms too. Most areas will see less than a half an inch of rain. There is a chance a few areas may get under a couple of heavier showers, but the amounts are not expected to prolong any river flooding.

By Sunday morning, the rain will be moving away from our region and any clouds will move out during the morning. Sunday is the pick day of the weekend with highs well into the 60s.

SUMMARY: A groundbreaking ceremony for a new park, named Memorial Park, will take place today in Maryland Heights, themed around Veterans Day and honoring first responders. The park will occupy over half an acre and feature elements such as five polished granite stones with bronze helmets representing local fire districts and police, as well as bronze statues honoring the military and first responders. Plans include bench seating, walking paths, flags, and a small parking area. The invitation-only event occurs due to limited parking, with completion details yet to be announced. The park aims to serve as a community focal point.

The city of Maryland Heights is breaking ground on a new park today that will honor veterans and first responders. Memorial Park will be located at the corner of Fee Fee Road and Dorsett Road, near Tony’s Donuts. The project will occupy just over half an acre.
