A potent weather system will dive across parts of the eastern United States early next week, possibly affecting travel before Thanksgiving.
Since this system is still several days away, some details are uncertain. However, the general themes of this system have been consistent.
Areas of rain develop in the Great Lakes and Ohio Valley on Sunday; for some, it’ll have already started by the time we get up for the day. Much of the activity in these regions ends by Sunday night, but some lake-effect lingers into Monday.
The line of rain races toward the East Coast Sunday evening and night. It’ll last into Monday, ending from west to east as the day goes on. The speed of the system will determine just how quickly the rain ends, although it ought to last in New England through Monday night.
While most places will be done with this system by Tuesday at the latest, parts of the Northeast will still likely be dealing with leftover snow or a rain/snow mix that day, and potentially as late as Wednesday. The Wednesday time period still has some questions around it, but the consensus is trending toward areas of lingering precipitation. Stay updated if you have travel plans for that region Tuesday or Wednesday.

This system will also cause big temperature swings again. Ahead of the system, readings will be near to above normal for late November. They’ll drop after the system again as chillier air spreads in.
Again, the timing and intensity are not set in stone so continue to check in every day for the latest updates.
