Most of the South will have sunny, mild weather this Thanksgiving, according to predictions from the Old Farmer's Almanac.
Meteorologists for the Almanac shared a map predicting warm or mild weather across the Southeast for Turkey Day.
"A chilly start early in the week gives way to milder air by Thanksgiving. With sunshine holding steady, it’s a fine setup for morning football games, backyard cookouts, or stress-free road trips," meteorologists Bob Smerbeck and Brian Thompson predict.
In Florida, they expect "a cooler-than-usual start" that "turns mild and comfortable. Expect plenty of sun and no rain in sight—a Florida Thanksgiving perfect for outdoor meals, beach strolls, or travel along I-95."
A few passing showers could appear in the Ohio Valley and lower Texas, but the weather prediction doesn't call for a deluge. Any snow will be far out of our range, while "the warmest air lingers over Texas, the Desert Southwest, and the Deep South."
Sounds like a nice week for travel and gathering with family—just the encouragement you need if you're on the fence about a long drive. The vast majority of Americans hit the roads to visit family for Thanksgiving rather than flying.
The Old Farmer's Almanac says its famous weather predictions are correct 80 percent of the time, and they got it right 86 percent of the time last winter.
But, but, but, Science!
My granddad swore by the Farmers Almanac and his barometer.
LOL....For him the farm report on the radio was the pinnacle of tech.
