As the US public started gearing up for the long weekend backed by the Thanksgiving Day 2018 or Turkey Day 2018 on November 22, 2018, weather reports have some important update for them!<\/p>\n
Meteorologists say that the country is about to face the \u2018coldest-on-record\u2019 climate and high winds on this Thanksgiving Day.<\/p>\n
Termed as the coldest-ever in more than a century, this year\u2019s Thanksgiving Day is most likely to see an adverse climatic condition that even threatens the iconic Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade.<\/p>\n
Different parts of the country, mostly Middle Atlantic and the Northeast states, are going to see bone-chilling winter temperatures ranging from 26-29 degrees on this Thanksgiving Day.<\/p>\n
While Philadelphia is expecting a 29-degree temperature, New York and Boston are preparing for the 26- and 21-degree temperatures, respectively.<\/p>\n
The three states witnessed such coldest Thanksgiving Days only a century back: New York City (NYC) (with the fall of mercury fell to 22 degrees) in 1871, Boston (a 18-degree temperature) in 1873 and Philadelphia (a 28-degree temperature) in 1901.<\/p>\n

Besides, high winds are also making up concerns over the State\u2019s celebrations on the Thanksgiving Day 2018.<\/p>\n
As the reports say, NYC is preparing for heavy winds in the 15-25 mph range for the Day, with Macy’s parade organizers continuing on high alert since the day before. Although the parade is expected to take place, concerns continue to exist on whether the 16 giant balloons will fly.<\/p>\n
It was in 1971 that Americans lastly saw Thanksgiving Day balloons grounded by heavy winds!<\/p>\n
According to organizers, extra safety measures would be required if the winds continue in the
\n23-34 mph range.<\/p>\n
“I’m a little concerned about it, because I don’t think people realize. … It’s Thanksgiving, so everyone knows it’s going to be cold, but no one realizes it’s going to be that cold,” reads a statement by Boston Mayor Marty Walsh<\/span>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
