STL unites to support tornado victims after disaster
ST. LOUIS – St. Louisans are putting in the hard work when it comes to aiding the community, following the devastating tornado that came to the area this month.
In the aftermath of the event, the spirit of community shines brightly as volunteers came together to support those in need.
'We're just here to bless people and make their days a little brighter,' said Nancy Holloway from the Salvation Army.
The community is helping those from a parking lot, but it serves as a beacon of hope for many.

Storm Team 3: Back to sizzling heat with strong afternoon storms
Let's have a fabulous Friday! After a 2-week break from 90-degree temperatures, the sizzling heat returns today with highs in the lower 90s. Heat index values will also climb into the upper 90s this afternoon. As of the chance of rain, we can't get rid of it completely due to some lingering moisture from Wednesday's coastal low. The coverage will be lower than the mid-week widespread rain we saw. Only isolated showers and t-storms are possible here and there in the afternoon and evening. Due to the extended threat of severe storms, Sunday has been upgraded to a Weather Aware Day to accompany Saturday's Aware Day. Scattered strong and severe storms are possible across both afternoons and evenings. Not a washout either day, but have a back up indoor plan in case storms head your way. Tomorrow will start dry with muggy temperatures in the lower 70s. Temperatures will quickly jump into the low to mid 90s for highs. Heat index values will be in triple digits. By the early afternoon, scattered storms will begin to fire up. Strong and severe storms are possible through the late afternoon into the overnight hours before rain tapers off. Our main impact will be damaging wind gusts of 60+ mph. Sunday will be a rinse and repeat of Saturday with scattered strong and severe storms possible across the afternoon and evening hours. High temperatures will once again climb into the mid 90s with feel-like temperatures reaching the triple digits. Stay hydrated and keep an eye on the sky. This weekend will not be a washout. There will be plenty of dry slots to be outside, just keep an eye on the sky. Rain will be heavy at times as well – this could lead to localized street flooding. Saturday and Sunday will be two of the hottest days the year so far with highs reaching the mid 90s outside of rain showers. Our hottest day of the year so far was on May 16 with a tied record high of 95. More of typical summertime pattern will continue through early next week. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.

Scattered rain & rumbles to end the work week, some dry time over the weekend
Today: Rain & rumbles, pop-up chance, high 80 Tonight: Tapering showers, low 63 Saturday: Early am showers, cloudier skies, high 79 (63) Sunday: Scattered t-showers, high 78 (64) Monday: Chance t-storms, high 78 (62) Tuesday: Few morning showers, high 77 (60) Good Friday morning! A few of us are waking up to a few showers & storms, but everyone is feeling humid to start the day. Going through Friday, we have a scattered chance to see more wet weather. But, there is a brief end in sight. A stationary front is still draped across Central Ohio and the Midwest. The system stretches all the way to the southwest, so there is more moisture to be funneled along the fronts. Scattered showers & storms remain steady going into the afternoon with more of a pop-up chance lasting into the evening. There is a 1/5 risk for severe weather once again today. Isolated stronger storms could produce stronger wind gusts. We're looking at frequent lightning and heavy rain inside of these storms as well. There are a few areas starting off with flooding concerns this morning. With more wet weather into the end of the week, it should be enough to push the last of the Canadian wildfire smoke out of the area. We'll look at clearer conditions going into the weekend in the way of air quality. Rain chances taper off fairly quickly going into tonight. There are a couple more isolated showers expected south of I-70 for the beginning of tomorrow. The rest of Saturday will work on drier weather, but still remain fairly cloudy. There is not a lot of movement with these fronts over the weekend, so more rain is expected to build back in on Sunday. Scattered showers & storms build up once again on Monday with a final push from this system. After some early showers on Tuesday, skies make a quick recover. The middle of next week will see some more sunshine work in. Skies remain clear & sunny into next Thursday. Temperatures will work their way back in the lower 80s towards the end of next week. -Joe Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
