Cool Thanksgiving Day, temps to fall overnight
We've got a cool Thanksgiving Day that will carry on through the weekend.

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- A strong cold front blows through Thanksgiving Day to bring a festive chill in the air.

With a north wind gusting over 30 mph an clouds sticking around most of the day, temperatures will struggle to warm back into the low 60s. There is a 10% chance of a shower during the day.

Will it stay colder through the weekend?

Yes, it will! We'll have some lovely weather Friday through the weekend with lows in the 40s, highs in the 60s, and plenty of sunshine coming through a deck of cirrus clouds.

When could we get more widespread rain?

A rainy area of low pressure looks to spin up off the Texas coastline after the weekend, bringing us a decent chance for rain Tuesday and Wednesday. Those showers could continue through Thursday and Friday, too. At this time we are anticipating about an inch of rain for most with higher amounts near the coast. The exact amount of rainfall and duration of the rain will depend on where the low forms and tracks.

When could we get our first freeze in Houston?

We aren't seeing any signs of freezing weather over the next 10 days, and long range projections now show only a low chance of a freeze for the first half of December. On average, Houston's first freeze occurs during the second week of December.
