Chilly Turkey Day and Snow on the Way

You probably noticed the cold this afternoon if you were out and about for your Thanksgiving festivities, but we didn't break a record. We actually tied for the 4th coldest Thanksgiving, reaching a high of 25° this afternoon in Rockford the same as Thanksgiving back in 1958. We also picked up a trace of snow this afternoon, and we will see a little more before the weekend starts.


Light snow will arrive for nothern parts of the Stateline tomorrow morning. It will arrive from the west and head east starting at about 4am and will linger through about 9-10am. Not much is expected to accumulate, only about a half inch, but it could make for slick roadways with the cold morning temperatures. You might want to leave a little extra time as you head out the door. Temperatures tomorrow afternoon will climb into the low 30s.
