CINCINNATI — Thanksgiving Week weather will be COLD, but seasonal. We can also expect rain for Turkey Day.

First, a blast of cold air arrives for Monday. Those highs will only reach the upper 30s and a tad bit warmer Tuesday.

Wednesday will be partly cloudy with a high of 50 degrees. Thanksgiving Day will see showers move through starting early in the day and ending by the evening – 49 degrees will be the high. Our Friday looks to remain dry with highs barely in the 40s.

The average temperature for Thanksgiving in our area is 48 degrees. We'll be pretty close throughout the holiday week. Lows will drop into the 20s.

Heads up for folks who are doing the Thanksgiving Day Race: You'll need the rain gear!
