Good evening, everyone. It’s a wet and windy evening for much of the region, but the focus of the forecast is on a big storm system rolling in for the coming weekend.

The showers out there this evening are slowly moving away…

I haven’t changed my thoughts at all with the weekend system. The European Model hasĀ  been all over the place with this system, but is coming back to what it was originally showing days ago. It’s back to wrapping up this storm system across the region…

We may see a low-topped line of strong thunderstorms racing across the region on Saturday. With our without the storms, we will have a high wind threat. Gusts of 40mph to 50mph will be possible…

This storm is just getting to within the range of the NAM, and the model is showing a little wraparound mix of rain and snow developing late Saturday evening…

The GFS Ensembles keep spitting out the chance for a few flakes in the east for Sunday…

The Thanksgiving week model drama continues, but the GFS is now back to matching the Ensembles with a cold shot of air moving in leading up to the big day. You can see the connection to the VERY cold stuff in western Canada…

Watch how it keeps the cold shots coming through early the following week:

Again, it matches the ensembles and matches what the pattern should be doing next week into Thanksgiving weekend. Watch for some systems diving in from the northwest during this time. The Ensembles think so…

Enjoy your Evening and take care.
