Tornado Outbreak Update - Latest Forecast Through Thanksgiving Week

It has been nice to have some calm weather over the past couple of days after the historic outbreak of tornadoes we just experienced on Sunday.  My prayers go out to everyone who has been displaced from their homes.  I could not even imagine.  Here is the latest on where the outbreak stands...


To put it briefly, temperatures will warm up back in the lower 50's tomorrow through Friday.  Enjoy some sunshine and dry weather tomorrow.  Rain chances return Thursday and Friday.  Right now, the wettest day appears to be Friday.  


The weekend will feature a HUGE dip in the jet stream.  Bottom line, it will get VERY cold!!  Any lingering precipitation Saturday morning could be in the form of snow flurries, but by Saturday afternoon and Sunday, dry weather will be the rule.  Obviously a much different weekend than the last one!  Temperatures Saturday will fall in the 30s through the day with teens Sunday morning.  Highs on Sunday will not get out of the 20s.  This is about 25 degrees off from normal.  Check out the arctic air mass spilling right into the Ohio Valley this weekend...


Temperatures will remain chilly for Thanksgiving week, with highs several days next week only in the 30s if current models are correct.  A couple of snow chances appear on the table, but these do NOT look like anything to get excited about at this point.  The forecast confidence for next week is low and subject to change.  

Thanks for reading!  As always, you can find more weather updates on my Facebook and Twitter pages.
