Tracking strong to severe storms Sunday evening
Saturday has been another hot and humid day across the St. Joseph area. However, there is light at the end of the tunnel, as we can expect some relief from the heat and humidity at the start of the workweek.
Sunday is expected to be an active weather day. We'll begin with conditions very similar to today—hot, humid, and with temperatures quickly climbing into the mid-90s. There's a chance for a few spotty showers in the morning, but they'll likely move through quickly and won't be the main concern. In the evening, a low-pressure system approaching from the northwest will bring a more organized and potentially severe line of storms to northwestern Missouri. The National Weather Service has placed our area under a Level 2 out of 5 risk for severe weather Sunday night. The primary threats will be strong straight-line winds and heavy rainfall, which could pose problems as many streams and rivers are already swollen from previous rain events earlier in the week.
These storms are expected to taper off by early Monday morning. Behind the system, conditions will improve, with cooler temperatures and noticeably lower humidity. Monday will feel much more comfortable, and this refreshing trend will continue throughout the workweek. Highs will generally stay in the mid to upper 80s, and the forecast looks mostly dry.
As we head into the holiday weekend, temperatures will gradually climb back into the 90s by Friday, the Fourth of July. While the weather is expected to remain dry through Friday, there is currently a slight 10% chance of rain on Saturday.

Today in Chicago History: Porch collapse in Lincoln Park kills 13, injures more than 50 young people
Here's a look back at what happened in the Chicago area on June 29, according to the Tribune's archives. Is an important event missing from this date? Email us. Weather records (from the National Weather Service, Chicago) High temperature: 97 degrees (1954) Low temperature: 48 degrees (1989) Precipitation: 2.81 inches (1933) Snowfall: Trace (1920) 1889: Annexation caused Chicago to gain 131 acres and more than 220,000 residents, making it the second-largest city in the United States. With a new total of 1.1 million residents, it ranked just behind New York in population. Immigrants drove population growth in the Chicago area and Cook County last year, latest census figures show The Chicago-Naperville-Elgin metropolitan area is the third-largest and Cook County is the second-largest in the country. 1996: Soldier Field sweltered as a crowd of 69,000 men sang and shouted during the Promise Keepers' first-ever event in Chicago. 2003: During a balcony porch party at an apartment building at 713 W. Wrightwood Ave. in Lincoln Park, a third-floor porch holding partygoers gave way, caving onto the second-floor porch below and barreling down to the ground floor. Thirteen people died and more than 50 were injured at the site just steps away from DePaul University. Although the city at first blamed overcrowding for the incident, it later charged that the porch on the Wrightwood building was bigger than code allowed and constructed improperly and without permits. Building inspectors, however, never cited those violations before the collapse. In the aftermath of the collapse, victims' families and injured survivors filed lawsuits against the property owner, manager, porch contractor and the city, the last of which a state appellate court ruled could not be held liable. The suits were ultimately settled with the property's insurance companies for a total of $16.6 million. The city also fined the property owner $108,000 and the porch contractor $25,000. It clarified and strengthened the building code and launched inspection sweeps. Officials created a 311 service request code for porch complaints and enacted a policy to inspect porches year-round rather than seasonally. 2006: Northwestern University coach Randy Walker died at 52 of a heart attack. He was at home in Wilmette at about 10 p.m. when he felt chest pains. He was rushed to Evanston Hospital but could not be revived. Pat Fitzgerald was named head coach on July 7, 2006.
