Cool and mostly cloudy Thursday; Sunny and not so creepy Halloween weekend

NORTH PLATTE, Neb. (KNOP) -SCOTTSBLUFF,Neb.(KNEP)- After a cool and cloudy day Wednesday, that trend will mostly continue into the day Thursday with a “treat” coming Halloween Weekend.

A disturbance to our south will be moving towards the southeast during the day Thursday and this will continue to allow moisture to wrap into the area, which will be in the form of clouds and some light precipitation in some places. Some decrease in cloud cover will take place in the region Thursday afternoon, especially in the Panhandle. Highs will approach the 50s, with winds will be on the light side with speeds around 5 to 10 mph. During the night Thursday, temperatures will cool down into the 20s with crystal clear conditions.
