How About a Mild Weekend!
    Hi 55 F
Lo 36 F
 

I think the idea of a mild weekend is pretty appealing to everyone whether you want to put up some Christmas lights or rake those last few leaves in the lawn.  We could start out with some areas of fog Saturday morning, but I expect a good deal of sunshine through most of the day.  Highs will reach the mid to upper 50s both Saturday and Sunday.  The difference will be the clouds which will start rolling in here Saturday evening and could bring some light rain or drizzle late Saturday night into Sunday.  A cool down will begin Monday and continue for most of next week, but I think we will begin to dry things out by Wednesday, so there appears to be no real travel problems for Thanksgiving time.

Have a good one!
