Rainy cooler Turkey Day?

Weather can change at the drop of a hat.

My house is full of family that came in on Saturday from Minneapolis. I was hoping for a little nicer weather, but it looks like its not meant to be.

As of Tuesday morning , most models now show the sub-tropical jet stream developing over the Gulf and pushing not just a front our way, but also plenty of moisture ahead of it. This means that as early as Tuesday night we could see a better chance for rain lingering through Thanksgiving.


My wife is not going to be happy since she planned our holiday dinner outside (on my recommendation and forecast).


Mother Nature sometimes can act like that old great aunt with the mole on her face who always wanted you to kiss her on the cheek when you were a kid. Arrgghh!


Regardless of rain, we will be together with both sides of my family: Grandmas and grandpas, aunts and uncles, cousins and a bunch of little ones . Mother nature can't change that!. It will be a very nice week regardless. So instead of sitting outside, we will dine indoors. We will all be a little more cramped and a little closer. I of course will be sitting next to my dear old great aunt with the mole on her face.


Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
