A look at Cleveland's Thanksgiving Day weather extremes

Record warmth to record snowfall are all possible as we take a look at Cleveland's Thanksgiving Day extremes of years past.

The forecast is calling for snow for this year's Thanksgiving Day, but will it be the snowiest?

Far from it! The crown for the snowiest Turkey Day was set in 1936. Cleveland recorded 11.6" of snow that day. Checkout the other extremes through the years:

Since 1893, Cleveland has only recorded nine Thanksgivings with 1" of snow or more. Since 1871, Cleveland recorded 63 Turkey Days with rainfall of at least 0.01" to 0.25".

The average afternoon high for Thanksgiving is 44. For four out of the past five, years we have been above that.
