November 26 Rain Ends Then Gusty Winds And Larger Thanksgiving Storm
November 26, 2024
Tuesday Morning Report
There is a very busy weather week ahead for the holiday. We started off the week with a chilly morning and mild afternoon on Monday. The first rain event will be mainly this morning, and then it will become windy. The second will be a larger storm that dominates Thanksgiving. Most of us will see chilly rain. There will be snow well to the north, then colder air spills across the Eastern US to end the week. This will spark snow showers or flurries later in the weekend.
Morning Surface Weather
The next front has reached us this morning. Much colder air will move in, fueling the next storm and bringing a cold surge later in the week.
The Thanksgiving Storm we expect is taking form across western Texas and New Mexico. That will reach us Wednesday night into Thursday.

RESTATING MY MESSAGE ABOUT DYSLEXIA
I am aware there are some spelling and grammar typos and occasional other glitches. I take responsibility for my mistakes and even the computer glitches I may miss. I have made a few public statements over the years, but if you are new here, you may have missed it: I have dyslexia and found out during my second year at Cornell University. It didn’t stop me from getting my meteorology degree and being the first to get the AMS CBM in the Baltimore/Washington region.
One of my professors told me that I had made it that far without knowing and to not let it be a crutch going forward. That was Mark Wysocki, and he was absolutely correct! I do miss my mistakes in my own proofreading. The autocorrect spell check on my computer sometimes does an injustice to make it worse. I also can make mistakes in forecasting. No one is perfect at predicting the future. All of the maps and information are accurate. The ‘wordy’ stuff can get sticky.
There has been no editor who can check my work while writing and to have it ready to send out in a newsworthy timeline. Barbara Werner is a member of the web team that helps me maintain this site. She has taken it upon herself to edit typos when she is available. That could be AFTER you read this. I accept this and perhaps proves what you read is really from me… It’s part of my charm. #FITF
