10 Weather: Chilliest air of the season perfect for snuggling ahead of the holiday

Polar high pressure drops temperatures 5-10 degrees below average with highs only in the upper 60s. We warm up closer to Thanksgiving!

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Happy Weekend! Time to find the winter jackets and holiday sweaters! But have the shorts ready next week. 

We are in a classic holiday weather pattern by Florida standards. Expect plenty of ups and downs that includes everything from 30s north to highs in the 80s  in time for Thanksgiving. Then another powerful cold front drops our temperatures by Thanksgiving Weekend as we go cold turkey!  

Tonight: Crystal clear skies and quickly falling temperatures into the 50s by 8 p.m. Our coldest morning of this cold snap in Tampa.

Low: 49  Rain Chance: 0%

Sunday: It will feel like two seasons in one day. A sunny and chilly start in the 30s and 40s with a bright and milder finish. 

High: 74  Rain Chance: 0%

Thanksgiving Week: A mixed bag! Warming up to the lower 80s by Wednesday and Thanksgiving with showers back in the forecast Friday. Colder next weekend. Travel may be good at home but challenging at times heading north and west with two big storm systems traversing the country.
