The weather looks to be shaping up very nicely for us this week. The branch of the jetstream that brings in the cold air this time of year is located well to the north. As the cold steering winds stay to the north, we can expect mild weather to continue to filter into the area out of the west. This weather pattern will continue to give us mild weather all the way into Friday before that cold air arrives for the weekend. Remember, the official start of winter is Saturday morning at 12:08 AM, and we are talking about thunderstorm chances for Saturday morning. Don't you just love weather!
