Here’s what to expect on Thanksgiving, Black Friday and throughout the weekend.
What will weather be like in Central NC on Thanksgiving?
A cold front is moving through the Triangle on Thursday, Nov. 28.
The front will bring cooler weather to the area and a chance for damaging winds and isolated tornadoes during the afternoon and evening , Kathleen Carroll, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service Forecast Office in Raleigh , told The N&O over the phone.
As of mid-day Wednesday, Nov. 27, the risk of damaging winds and tornadoes for Thanksgiving was marginal , Carroll said.
The storms should have moved out of the Triangle by midnight Nov. 28.
“The rest of Thursday night should be relatively dry and quiet,” Carroll said. “It will be turning cooler, though.”
