LOCAL FORECAST

Locally, your Thanksgiving evening will be pleasant and dry, with temperatures falling into the 60s overnight. Some patchy fog will be possible for Black Friday shoppers waking up early tomorrow morning, but the fog will eventually give way to a mostly sunny sky Friday afternoon.

For next week, we’re eyeing a cold front coming through Monday. This will bring an increase in scattered rain, but plummet our humidity levels behind it. There’s also the potential for lows in the 40s for parts of our area Wednesday morning!

This forecast is subject to small adjustments over the coming days. Trust the Weather Authority to keep you updated!
