It will be a cloudy and cool Thanksgiving for Acadiana with temperatures starting out in the low-mid 40s and likely finishing somewhere in the upper 50s to near 60°.
An upper level disturbance will push through the area into Thursday night, but with little atmospheric moisture to work with, expect just some sprinkles or a few patches of very light rain to develop Thursday afternoon into the night.
The chance of measurable precipitation (enough to wet the ground) will be near 20% Thursday afternoon and may increase to 30-40% Thursday night.
The disturbance should move east of the area Friday with lingering clouds likely a good bet.
Temperatures Friday should moderate into the mid-60s.
Acadiana's next weather-maker will arrive Sunday with a partly cloudy Saturday morning turning cloudy into the afternoon.
Saturday should be dry with temperatures edging into the upper 60s.
Periods of rain are expected to develop by Sunday (60%) with rainy conditions looking to be most likely during the morning through the mid-afternoon hours, although some precipitation may develop as early as late Saturday night/predawn Sunday.
Once again, do not expect a whole lot of rain Sunday, with most areas likely to see 1/2" or less.
Next week will be a continuation of cooler than normal temperatures with plenty of clouds...although Tuesday and Wednesday should bring some sunshine back to the area.
Another weather system looks to bring back the chance of showers by the end of next week, with today's models keying in on next Friday.
