Sick of Snow? Easter Weekend to Hit the 60s

Snow is fun. Until you realize it sticks around, turns into slush and creates a wet mess out of everything. 

Mother Nature dropped more than 10 inches of snow on the St. Peters-area over the weekend, causing businesses and schools to close. 

But those sick of the snow can rest easy knowing better weather is just around the corner.
