Today will be sunny, mild and not as windy as yesterday. High temps will range from the upper 40s to low 50s this afternoon with wind from the west at only 5 to 15 mph.

Mild temperatures will stick around through the weekend. There will be plenty of sunshine with afternoon temperatures the 50s on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

Enjoy the above average weather while you can because this is only going to last for a few more days. Our weather pattern will change early next week and temperatures will drop considerably. By next Tuesday and Wednesday highs will only reach the 30s with even colder air rolling in by late next week.

If you are traveling this holiday weekend you have absolutely nothing to worry about… When it comes to the weather, at least. The entire weekend will be absolutely amazing… Mostly sunny with high temperatures that are well above average for this time of year.

Today will be sunny and warm with highs ranging from the mid 50s in Sioux Falls to the low 70s across central and western South Dakota. Tomorrow will be mostly sunny and warmer but breezy. High temps will be in the mid to upper 50s across the entire region tomorrow afternoon.

A front will drop our high into the upper 40s Saturday, but we’ll will bounce back into the mid 50s on Sunday. High temps will reach the 60s on Monday.

As of right now it looks like Monday will be the last day of our unseasonably warm weather. A front will bring highs back to the low 40s by Tuesday with cooler temps hanging around through most of next week.

Unlike yesterday you are definitely going to need your warm jacket today. A cold front blasted through late yesterday and temperatures have been falling through the night. We’re not going to recover much this afternoon, either. Afternoon temps won’t even make it out of the 20s. Factor in northwest wind gusts to between 25 and 30 mph and it’ll feel even colder. The wind will decrease late this afternoon into this evening.

The holiday weekend will be dry with a mild start. Temperatures will climb back into the low 50s by Thanksgiving day, soaring into the upper 50s on Black Friday. Another cold front will drop highs back into the 30s and 40s on Saturday and Sunday. If you’re traveling anywhere in the five state region this holiday weekend it should be smooth sailing.
