SUMMARY: Meteorologist Jaime Travers warns of cold temperatures and wind chills in the teens as Black Friday approaches, with winter-like conditions expected this weekend. Light snow may fall by tomorrow morning, influenced by an Arctic air mass. Highs today are in the 30s, but it will feel colder due to the wind. A Clipper system will bring the first significant snowfall, potentially accumulating up to an inch or more in some areas. As clouds thicken tonight, drivers should prepare for slick roads due to snow. Caution is advised throughout the weekend as temperatures remain low.

If you’re Black Friday shopping, you may want to bundle up. It’ll be a cold, but sunny day on Friday with highs only in the 30s. Breezy northwesterly winds will keep wind chills in the 20s and low 30s for much of the afternoon.

SUMMARY: While many spent Thanksgiving with family, first responders like firefighters and EMTs in St. Louis worked to keep the community safe. Despite the holiday shift, they celebrated with a special family meal, roasting a whole pig instead of turkey.

The report emphasizes the importance of fire safety during the holiday season and shares a warm Thanksgiving greeting.

As we gathered around tables to give thanks, our first responders were diligent in their work of keeping St. Louis safe.
