Partly cloudy Thursday night, with lows in the upper 20s (-2 degrees Celsius) for all of you early-risers on Black Friday morning. I personally can’t wait to shop at my local stores…I never buy online (unless absolutely necessarily), because that’s like looking a local merchant in the eye and telling him or her that I’d rather send my money out of state rather than support a business (and jobs) here. Plus, I love seeing all of the people out holiday shopping…the crowds simply don’t bother me.
Partly cloudy and windy on Black Friday itself, with highs in the mid to upper 40s (8-9 degrees Celsius).

Turkey Travel Weather
This year, we’ll have one of the best Thanksgiving travel weather weeks ever. Most of the country will be dry all week. That’s right, the whole week. The biggest potential problem will be in the New York / Boston airport areas, where heavy traffic volumes combined with rain on Wednesday could cause some air delays. The Pacific northwest will also see a series of storms. But other than these two areas, most of the country will have no travel trouble all the way through Sunday. Here are two travel weather maps for each day from Tuesday through Sunday to help you plan.
Out of the office
As usual, I will be taking some time off the rest of this week to rest and relax, as I’ll be working for Brandon over Christmas so he can enjoy the holiday with his family. I’ll keep an eye on the weather this week, and send any necessary updates to those of you who follow me on Twitter (@PGLocal4). Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
