Thanksgiving week has arrived and weather shouldn’t cause many issues for travel around here.
We start to week off with a breezy and cool day as high pressure briefly builds into the region. Winds die down tonight, then we’ll turn milder on Tuesday as winds shift into the southwest ahead of low pressure heading into the Great Lakes. Some rain is likely ahead of that system late Tuesday and Tuesday night, setting up a milder day on Wednesday ahead of an approaching cold front with temperatures possibly approaching 60 in some spots. A few showers are possible during the day, but they’ll be more likely along the front during the evening.
Breezy and cooler weather settles in behind the front on Thanksgiving Day, then even colder weather moves in for Friday and Saturday as high pressure builds in. A weak upper-level disturbance may produce a few flurries on Friday, otherwise it’ll just be breezy and chilly with highs only in the 30s to lower 40s, with wind chills in the upper teens and 20s if you’re planning on heading out for any Black Friday sales. Saturday should be dry and chilly once again, but with less wind. Milder air starts to move back in on Sunday, but clouds will also be returning as another system heads our way. It looks like any precipitation accompanying the system should hold off until nighttime, which is good news for what is usually another busy travel day.
