[NOV. 23, 2005]
HOPEWELL JUNCTION, N.Y. --
Turkeys will thaw in the morning, then warm in the oven to an
afternoon high near 190 degrees. The kitchen will turn hot and
humid. If you bother the cook, be ready for a severe squall or cold
shoulder.

During the late afternoon and evening, the cold front of a knife
will slice through the turkey, causing an accumulation of 1 to 2
inches on plates. Mashed potatoes will drift across one side, while
cranberry sauce creates slippery spots on the other. A weight watch
and indigestion warning have been issued for the entire area, with
increased stuffiness around the beltway. During the evening, the
turkey will diminish and taper off to leftovers, dropping to a low
of 34 degrees in the refrigerator.

 Looking ahead to Friday and Saturday, high pressure to eat
sandwiches will be established. Flurries of leftovers can be
expected both days, with a 50 percent chance of scattered soup late
in the day. We expect a warming trend where soup develops.
By early next week, eating pressure will be low, as the only wish
left will be the bone.
Happy Thanksgiving from Compu-Weather.
