Feels like Thanksgiving? A look at Beaufort County weather forecasts ahead of the holiday
After a chilly weekend with expected wind gusts, Beaufort County will see warm-to-mild temperatures during Thanksgiving week, meteorologists say.

Friday will likely be the coldest, with highs in the upper 50s and lows dipping toward 40 degrees Fahrenheit, according to the Charleston office of the National Weather Service.
Winds are expected to subside as high temperatures climb back into the 60s on Saturday, reaching into the low-to-mid 70s for the front half of the holiday week. Thanksgiving forecasts set a high of 73 and low of 49.
