SUMMARY: Meteorologist Chase Ward forecasts cool, clear weather this morning, with temperatures in the lower 40s. The day will stay in the 50s with plenty of sunshine. Winds will remain light, and high pressure will keep conditions clear through the day. By tomorrow, temperatures will warm into the mid-70s before a cold front arrives late Wednesday, bringing the chance of patchy showers and possibly a rumble of thunder for Thanksgiving morning. Afterward, temperatures will drop, with highs in the mid-50s and lows possibly reaching the 20s by early next week. The upcoming days will be much cooler.

It is a lot cooler this morning compared to yesterday. A post-frontal airmass is now in place with high pressure to the northwest keeping the winds out of that direction. Temperatures will trend seasonal today before climbing back above average tomorrow. Clouds are expected to increase with warm moist air returning through tomorrow afternoon. A front will arrive late Wednesday which will initiate some patchy to scattered showers into early Thanksgiving morning. Temperatures will then get very cold by the weekend reaching to near and below freezing by Sunday night.
