It looks like this weekend isn’t going to be quite as stormy as the last one, at least in our neck of the woods. We may get some low temps but at least the flood danger is gone for now. If you are traveling for the Thanksgiving holiday, be prepared and be safe.

Wishing the Eagle staff and all the readers and their families a very Happy Thanksgiving.
