.DISCUSSION...
Breezy northwesterly transport winds are forecast for
Thanksgiving with decent mixing. PM RHs drop to around 30% in the
Ozarks today. Winds become light on Friday as high pressure moves
through. A mixed precipitation event Saturday brings a mix of
rain and snow, with northern areas having the best chance for
measurable snow Saturday morning (likely to melt due to a
switchover to rain later in the day Saturday). Cold air moves in
for early next week with another potentially mixed precip event.
