Cooler For Thanksgiving Week With Minimal Precipitation Chances
Some areas of the state will see drizzle or light rain on Monday - otherwise, it's shaping up to be a mostly quiet holiday week for travel, shopping, and eating some turkey. 40s are expected for highs through Wednesday, with 30s for Thanksgiving and next weekend. - D.J. Kayser

Much Cooler Friday Under Sunny Skies - 20s For Thanksgiving?
After three days in the 60s for highs, it's going to be a bit cooler Friday as we only reach the low 40s under sunshine. We rebound to the low 50s this weekend, but another system brings in much cooler air later next week - chilly 20s for Thanksgiving festivities. - D.J. Kayser

Enjoy one last day in the 60s in the metro on Thursday with more blustery winds! A cold front moving through during the afternoon hours will drop temperatures back to the 40s for Friday before we warm back to near 50F this weekend. Even cooler air moves in for Thanksgiving week. - D.J. Kayser

Unseasonably Mild Weather Into Thursday
Focus on the here and now: beautiful, postcard-worthy sunshine all week with a shot at 60s today and Thursday before waves of chilly air burble southward. Is this autumn's last hurrah? It sure looks like it. But it was nice while it lasted. Check the blog for more details. -Todd Nelson

More Early October Than Mid-November
Winds ease today (still too nice to rake leaves) with temperatures 15-25F above average into Thursday. Take full advantage of this week because next week will bring a reality check, with rain possibly ending as slushy snow one week from today. Yes, it will be cold enough for slush within next week and ECMWF guidance shows highs in the 30s by late November. 30s above zero. Check the blog for more details. -Todd Nelson

A Mild Week - Winter Delayed Once Again
Here comes a warm front that would feel right at home in early October, with 50s into Thursday. The best chance of topping 60? Tuesday and Thursday; 20F warmer than average. Wow. No big storms of any flavor in sight - I see a little rain Thanksgiving Week. Check the blog for more details. -Todd Nelson

Second Snowiest Halloween On Record
The sun stays out much of today and Thursday before a little drizzle on Friday. Steadier rain may arrive Sunday. No more snow or ice or gale-force wind gusts looking out 2 weeks. By late week highs poke into the 40s, which will feel like sweet relief. I'm not ruling out another 50F before Thanksgiving. Check the blog for more details. -Todd Nelson
