Today was a chilly but
clear day for the many travelers out there.
However, we have a low pressure system moving through the region this
evening that will bring us some light rain showers, and even some snow
overnight. As these showers move
through, the cold air behind them will allow for a transition into snow.

This will be a light and rather
wet snow/rain mix until the very early morning hours, and the ground will still
be above freezing. So, we are not
expecting much accumulation. As shown in
the graphic above, most places will only see a dusting, but other places may see
up to an inch. The greatest accumulations
are expected on grassy or elevated surfaces.
However, in general, this system is not expected to have a large impact.
We may still see some lingering
flurries in the morning, but the rest of Thanksgiving Day will be dry and
partly sunny. Unfortunately, it will
also be rather chilly. As shown in the
graphic below, temperatures will struggle just to make it to 40°. Thankfully, after tomorrow, we will see a bit
of a warming trend.

Looking ahead, we can
expect highs in the mid 40s for anyone out and about on Black Friday. Saturday’s highs are expected to make it into
the mid 50s, and by Sunday we could see temperatures up into the mid 60s. We should also stay dry until Saturday
night and Sunday when our next frontal system will move through.
Forecast:
Tonight: Cloudy skies, 70% chance of rain/snow mix, lows near
32°, and winds out of the northwest at around 3-6 mph.
Thanksgiving: Partly sunny, slight chance of AM snow flurries, highs
near 40°, and winds out of the northwest at around 5-8 mph.
Thanksgiving Night:
Partly cloudy skies, lows
near 25°, and calm winds.
Thanks for reading, and have a happy Thanksgiving!
