College Prowler Take
For reasons better explained by a qualified meteorologist (for example, local favorite Ben Able of 90.7 KWMU), St. Louis frequently experiences dramatic shifts in weather from one day to the next. Last spring, on more than one occasion, it snowed one day and was warm enough for T-shirts and shorts the next. That said, the pattern of seasons remains relatively constant. The range of conditions goes from quite cold in the winter (bring lots of fleeces, sweatshirts, gloves, a hat, and a winter coat), to unbearably hot and muggy in the summer.
Fall and spring, though, are two delightful seasons. Warm and sunny at first, fall tapers off into cool breezes, gorgeous foliage changes, and hazy golden sunsets. And spring in St. Louis is well worth the wait through the often agonizingly long winter. Trees and flowers bloom and blossom all over campus, temperatures reach warm but rarely unpleasant highs, and most importantly, students suddenly begin wearing less clothing than before. All of those pasty white bundles of overworked, sun-deprived students finally shed their layers and show off their occasionally sexy bodies. Students Speak Out

It changes all the time, so prepare for very cold weather but also for nice days. In the fall it's on the warmer side, but the winters can be brutal.

The weather here is schizophrenic!...
The weather here is schizophrenic! Seriously, you’ll go from 80 degrees to 40 within the week. I’ve seen it! Usually, it’s pretty moderate, though; it’s nothing too extreme. There’s not too much snow, and the heat is usually never excruciating. |

St. Louis weather is a little unpredictable. It’s not really that cold in the winter, and snow is only an occasional thing. But sometimes it’s just freaky—like 70 one day and 40 the next. But overall, it’s not that bad. Still, coming from sunny California, it may seem a little cold. |

The weather sucks about five months out of the year because of grey skies and sloppy snow, but the spring is unbelievable. Depending on where you are from, you should be able to adapt. |

The fall and spring are beautiful and mild, but be sure to pack some extra-warm clothes for the winter months. |
