Clayton's downtown business district has numerous art galleries,
boutiques, fine restaurants, and cafes with outdoor seating. The city hosts
major cultural and culinary events such as the St. Louis Art Fair and the Taste
of Clayton food festival.
St. Louis County has a continental climate, with neither large
mountains nor large bodies of water to moderate its temperature. The area is
affected by both cold Canadian Arctic air, and also hot, humid air from the
Gulf of Mexico. The county has four distinct seasons. Spring is the wettest
season and produces erratic severe weather ranging from tornadoes to winter
storms. Summers are hot, and the humidity can cause the heat index to rise to
temperatures above 100 °F (38 °C). Fall is mild, with lower humidity and can
produce intermittent bouts of heavy rainfall with the first snow flurries
usually forming in late November. Winters are cool to cold with periodic snow
and temperatures often below freezing. Winter storm systems, such as Alberta
clippers, can bring days of heavy freezing rain, ice pellets and snowfall.
