       Fleeting warmth: Soak up the 70s Thursday. Reality will return with a cold front late. Thursday will probably be the last day in the 70s for some time. It looks as though we may end up cooler than normal on the whole for the rest of the month, in addition to storm chances around Thanksgiving. The city might even flirt with a freezing low this weekend. The average first at- or below-freezing morning in our current climate was today, Nov. 17.
