A Long Holiday Weekend

In the meantime, heavy rain and strong winds will press in across the Pacific Northwest into the weekend. Cold air will reach the Great Basin the weekend and some of it will spill into California's Central Valley where a hard freeze will be possible both Saturday morning and Sunday morning. Next Monday will be nasty over the Pacific Northwest where 15 to 25 inches of snow will fall. Severe thunderstorms will be possible from Louisiana to central Tennessee, and flooding will be likely across northern Alabama, eastern Tennessee, southeast Kentucky and far western North Carolina  with 2 to 5 inches of rain (bringing the total for Thanksgiving and Monday to 10 inches in some areas!).


Thanksgiving Day will be very wet and stormy from east Texas to western Pennsylvania. Severe thunderstorms will be likely from the Gulf Coast to Tennessee, including northern Mississippi and northern Alabama. Flooding will be a huge problem from northern Mississippi and northern Alabama, much of Tennessee, Kentucky, and much of West Virgina.

The long holiday weekend will be more than eventful - as far as the weather goes. It all starts Wednesday with a mix of freezing rain and snow across Minnesota and eastern South Dakota, and blizzard conditions across much of North Dakota, northwest Minnesota, parts of South Dakota, Montana and Wyoming.
