Certainly not worstt day we thanksgiving we have ever had but best chance for rain in the seven day forecast, really comes tomorrow and then again into next week, tuesday or wednesday. But first we have got to talk about tomorrow, because we will see some showers start to move in. Tonight, it is quiet, but that will change a witt. Heres a look outside to one of our live Neighborhood Network sites. The reason i picked this again i showed you it past two nights and we had beautiful sunset will colors here. Remember 5 15 we had pink, purple, we are not seeing that tonight. Reason for that is clouds have moved in, after a beautiful day, that increase in clouds we talked about yesterday, has finally happened, and big cloud bank moving in on the western horizon and now the clouds are in, and that is heralding the arrival of the next system which will be bringing showers for thanksgiving day. It was a cold morning today. Wanted to recap this. We did hit freezing this morning, average low for todays date 37. This is first time reaching freezing, since april 10th, and you may have felt it out there i went outside and said yep, im pretty sure we made it. Definitely got down to freezing this morning. Problem is overnight tonight even though cloud will move in and we will keep up here in the philadelphia area well above freezing, up in the poconos and Lehigh Valley, temperatures, just heading toward freezing overnight. While the main push of the showers, is still way back over the midwest, this little warm front trying to activate through portions of central, pennsylvania and into maryland. It is starting to fizzle a little bit but if any showers get the in to our far northern regions overnight there will be threat for light freezing rain especially on elevated surfaces like bridges, overpasses so do watch out tomorrow morning for a few isolated slick spots. Otherwise this front moving in and as you can see model kills it as it moves n it doesnt look like a whole lot with it but cannot rule out a few scattered showers at anytime through the day tomorrow, temperatures are pretty seasonal in the the lower 50s. Lets take you all across the country. Getting on a plane tonight, tomorrow traveling thanksgiving day, showers buffalo, cleveland, washington d. C. Philadelphia will see clouds and sunshine.

Salt lake city in denver are chilly. Los angeles looks great. San francisco looking pretty nice as well. So northeast, just a few shower problems tomorrow but otherwise it is a pretty quiet thanksgiving day across much of the nation. For your thursday, mostly cloudy, couple scattered showers, again, not a total wash out of a day, not the worst day we have ever had by a long shot but if you do have plans to be outside. I know my family used to do a big flag Football Game in the yard, you may be dodging rain drops. Friday, cloud, a few breaks of sun at 55 and saturday looks good.
