Here’s today’s Bottom Line
A warm THANK YOU to all of those who honorably served our great nation. Today we salute you.
High pressure remains in control through about midday tomorrow. A strong (!!) but dry cold front will crash through the area around lunchtime Thursday. There might be a spotty light shower or two but the biggest harbinger of the front will be the gusty winds we experience through the day.
Then the first true taste of winter will arrive across the area on Friday. Dress warm for the football action at Legion Stadium Friday night as temps in the upper 40s at kickoff will be in the lower 40s by the time the Wolfpack polish off the victory.
FROST AND FREEZE CONDITIONS
The ground will be white with widespread frost early Saturday morning as temps drop to the lower and middle 30s. Afternoon highs on Saturday will be in the mid 50s, which is normal for mid-January.
A widespread killing freeze will take place late Saturday night into early Sunday morning, bringing the 2026 growing season to an end. Lows will be around 30, with undoubtedly some upper 20s likely in the typically colder spots. Highs Sunday will be in the mid to upper 50s.
Another freeze Sunday night into Monday with temps back down to around 30, with highs Monday in the upper 50s.
It is looking likely that the below-normal temps will continue into next week.
