Thanksgiving is just around the corner! While the holiday is still over a week away, some aspects of the week ahead are coming into sight.
An upper-level trough and associated cold front will be pushing the the midsection of the nation early to mid-next week. While the week will start off warm with highs in the 70s on Monday and Tuesday, cooler air will filter into North Texas by Wednesday. Right now, the forecast for next week in DFW remains dry.
If you plan to stay in North Texas for the upcoming holiday the forecast is looking variably cloudy and seasonable. While a spotty shower or two cannot be completely ruled out, the best chance for showers will be for areas east of DFW.
Turkey Trots will be a touch chilly with temperatures in the morning sitting in the 40s.
