Cloud cover will increase tonight as a weak system moves into the area overnight. Drizzle and fog will be possible, especially Thursday morning. If not traveling it may be the perfect conditions to sit inside and watch the Macy’s Parade on television. Freezing drizzle can’t be ruled out during the morning hours. This drizzle, fog, and possible freezing drizzle could result in minor impacts to holiday travel.
A weak cold front will cross the region late Thursday morning through the afternoon, resulting in a light chance for light snow. No significant accumulation is likely. Therefore, no travel issues are expected on Northland roads. Following the cold front on Thursday, high pressure will develop on Friday, ushering in a quiet weekend. Winds will pick up a touch ushering in warmer temperatures. Some parts of the Northland may climb into the low to mid 40s. Looking ahead to next week, our next best chance for widespread snow will be on Tuesday. Have a great Thanksgiving!
