We’re in for a very mild Thanksgiving. I’ve looked at many weather models, and this forecast is a slam dunk. Sometimes you hear and see various forecasts from different media outlets. This time, it won’t matter if you watch Belinda Jensen, Chris Shaffer, or Dave Dahl … you will hear that our Thanksgiving weather will be awesome in Minnesota and western Wisconsin. Our average high temperature this time of year is in the mid 30s. We should warm into the 50s this Thanksgiving. A Thanksgiving high of 50 degrees or greater has happened only 9 times in the past 120 years in the Twin Cities, according to the MN State Climatology Office. Their records also show that we've seen measureable snow on 25 Thanksgivings in the past 120 years. In 1970 the Twin Cities saw 5 inches of new snow...I bet that messed up some travel plans!
