Today's Weather: Gusty

By Jon Graef in News on Nov 8, 2014 4:00PM

We'll have some winds and a mix of cloud and sunshine, making the start of the weekend a gusty, blustery one. Accuweather calls for winds from the Northwest to make your life lots of fun, with gusts up to 33 miles per hour and a twenty percent chance of thunderstorms.

Skilling Central calls for a high around the mid-40s, which he says is about 7 degrees below normal season temperatures. There will at least be some sunshine in the forecast, so that will be nice. As for tomorrow? Much more of the same, but a little warmer before the polar vortex comes to kill us all. [Not really].
