Thanksgiving forecast update, Lake Effect Snow by Friday

 

The clouds return and temperatures will fall to end the week, winter is coming. Travel the day before and on Thanksgiving will have little impact from weather. There will be some drizzle/flurries Wednesday evening, travel southward could have heavier precipitation. Thanksgiving day is just colder and cloudy. Friday will be much colder, highs in the 20s and a west wind. The wind direction matters, as a west wind is less favorable for lake effect snowfall to impact most of Michiana. The snow will be mostly confined to Western Michigan. But our Southwest Michigan counties could see a few inches of snow. The weekend in general is cold and cloudy, a few peaks of sun are more likely away from the lake. 

Tonight: Increasing cloudy. Low 32.

Wednesday: Cloudy, a chance of rain/snow by the evening. High 44.

Thanksgiving: Cloudy  High 38.

Friday: Lake effect snow. High 28.
