FORECAST DISCUSSION:

Happy Thanksgiving!

We're off to a wet start to the morning, but the showers don't stick around long. By mid-morning, most of the wet wintry mix will have cleared, and we'll be drier into the afternoon. Expect a few breaks in the clouds later, with highs in the middle 40s, and breezy conditions. Then tonight, we'll be looking at a few flurries and light snow showers as an area of low pressure spins a few lake-enhanced snow showers through Central Ohio.

For our Friday, expect mainly cloudy skies, with flurries, and much colder temps. Highs top out close to freezing, but it will feel colder when you factor in the breeze.

We'll be dealing with a wind chill all weekend. It will be a very cold day at Ohio Stadium Saturday, with subfreezing highs, and "feels-like" temps in the upper teens and low-20s thanks to the breeze.

A similar setup on Sunday, with highs close to 30, but feeling much colder. We will see a good bit of sunshine through the weekend, with dry conditions, and just a few flurry chances.
