It will actually be a fairly average Thanksgiving day holiday for the Stateline area. The high temperature for this afternoon is 43° while the forecast high is set for 45°. But most Thanksgivings on average are spent in the 30's. Since records have been kept over the last 110 years, forty one of those have been spent in the 30's and thirty six years have been in the 40's.
The warmest Thanksgiving we've had? That would be November 26th, 1914 when the high was 67°; but the 'coldest' high is 17° on November 27th, 1930. There's even been a fair amount of snow thats fallen on Thanksgiving, even though the majority are dry. Back in 1968, 4.5" of snow fell in the Rockford area on Thanksgiving.
This year expect highs in the mid 40's under mostly sunny skies and light southwest winds.
Hope you have a Happy Thanksgiving!
