According to the National Weather Service, rain will begin late Wednesday night and continue through Thanksgiving morning, with highs reaching 44 degrees. The rain may linger in parts of the area into Thursday afternoon before tapering off. Low temperatures on Thursday night will drop to 32 degrees, increasing the risk of icy patches overnight.
As the week progresses, colder air will dominate. Friday brings a mix of rain and snow showers, with daytime highs near 38 degrees and minimal accumulation expected. By Saturday, temperatures will plummet to a high of just 28 degrees with lows dipping into the teens.
