Don't ground Spider-Man just yet.
Though the National Weather Service is calling for a breezy, gust-driven Thanksgiving Day, there's a reasonable chance it'll all be just shy of wind limits that would force the grounding of those Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade balloons.
The weather service is calling for an abrupt temperature drop overnight Wednesday into Thursday, making for a cold Thanksgiving with steady winds of 10-15 mph with gusts as high as 31 mph in Central Park on Thursday.
Regulations in place since 1998 mandate the grounding of those parade balloons if sustained winds of more than 23 mph — or, gusts of at least 34 mph — are present. For paradegoers that means the projected Thanksgiving Day Parade balloon lineup might just slip in under the grounding limits.
