Many Changes the Next 5-7 Days
The first change will be Wednesday into Thanksgiving. Highs will soar into the 60s Wednesday, before a strong cold front races through Wednesday night. So, Thanksgiving Day should be much colder with highs struggling to reach the low 40s. The cold airmass will leave quickly Friday with highs approaching 50.
While this is happening, storm systems will be diving into the southwest USA. By the end of the weekend one will likely have come through with another potentially onthe way. Right now it looks like the end of the holiday weekend could be cloudy & wet. Next week may finally look like November & December with cloudy skies, temperatures in the 30s & 40s & periods of rain.
We are way overdue for a stretch of weather like that. Is this fantasy, or will it really happen? We will know a lot more Wednesday.
Below is the upper level chart for next Monday at Noon. Notice, the big upper low in the southwest part of the country with another one heading in.

Great write up Gary!!! Thanks. Just a quick thought: today's 12Z Euro sure looked cold for next week!! We are due for a stretch of colder wetter weather for sure. Maybe we can have some fun this winter after all.
Bill,
There is hope as the pattern is energetic. But, next week's storm looks rainy. This could change.
