A cold front will cross the area Monday night and Tuesday will be cooler but with highs in the 50s.

Now for Wednesday, a coastal storm will be developing and moving up the coast, the track and the strength of the storm is still not clear but as of right now it appears that we will have mostly rain starting around midday possibly beginning as a mix or snow or rain, at night colder air will be moving into the area and changing the rain to snow which may accumulate a few inches inland before ending on Thanksgiving morning.  The forecast will probably change the next few days so keep tuned as this may affect travel especially inland.
