Thanksgiving Forecast
Turkeys will thaw in the morning, then warm in the oven to an afternoon high
near 190 F. The kitchen will turn hot and humid, and if you bother the cook,
be ready for a severe squall or cold shoulder.
During the late afternoon and evening, the cold front of a knife will slice
through the turkey, causing an accumulation of one to two inches on plates.
Mashed potatoes will drift across one side while cranberry sauce creates
slippery spots on the other. Please pass the gravy.
A weight watch and indigestion warning have been issued for the entire area,
with increased stuffiness around the beltway. During the evening, the turkey
will diminish and taper off to leftovers, dropping to a low of 34 F in the
refrigerator.
Looking ahead to Friday and Saturday, high pressure to eat sandwiches will
be established. Flurries of leftovers can be expected both days with a 50
percent chance of scattered soup late in the day. We expect a warming trend
where soup develops. By early next week, eating pressure will be low as the
only wish left will be the bone.
Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!
