Holidays

For those traveling out west, you could see some delays due to rain stretching from the West Coast into the Rockies. Rain and snow showers will linger into Wednesday for that area as well.
The same system will bring rain and possible snow showers to the Central Plains on Wednesday along with cold temperatures. Much of the East Coast will have mild conditions on Wednesday with warm temperatures in the 80s for Florida and seasonal temperatures in the 50s for the Northeast.
Thursday, Nov. 28 (Thanksgiving) and Friday, Nov. 29 (Black Friday)
Another system could pull rain and snow back into the Northeast though it’s too early at this point to know the exact impact. This could potentially make for tricky travel from the Mississippi Valley to the Midwest and into the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast for Thanksgiving and Black Friday.
We'll have an updated Thanksgiving and Black Friday forecast in the coming days.
