HAZARDOUS WEATHER: A strong cold front will move across the area on Thanksgiving Day with showers and thunderstorms developing and spreading eastward along and ahead of this cold front. Any organized clusters of thunderstorms will be capable of producing some damaging winds during the warmest part of the day. The threat for damaging winds will continue into the late afternoon as the warm and moist southerly winds feed thunderstorm development. Once the cold front moves into an area, the threat for damaging winds will end and temperatures will fall rather dramatically. Expect a cold rain to slowly push out during the overnight. Some light rain may linger over Louisiana early Friday morning. Under clear skies expect temperatures to be below freezing for Saturday. Expect a slow warm up late in the weekend. Then early next week, another strong upper level disturbance will take aim on the I-20 corridor as we start the new week bringing back strong thunderstorms with possible damaging winds by late Monday into Tuesday.
