One of the biggest weather stories going forward is the cold wave that is coming to much of the nation beginning late this week and likely continuing for much of the first couple weeks of December. In fact, this will likely be one of the coldest starts to the month of December in many years and it will have a “Siberian” connection.
Before we get to the cold wave, there will be a lot of weather to go through across much of the nation with significant snowfall in some areas. Low pressure is currently pushing eastward across the higher elevations of the western US resulting in substantial snow accumulations from the Sierra Nevada Mountains of eastern California to the Colorado Rockies. Some of these locations will end up with snow totals on the order of 1-2 feet before this low spills out into the middle of the nation at mid-week.
From there, this low pressure system will move rather quickly across the Tennessee Valley on Wednesday night and to the southern New England coastline by mid-day Thursday. As a result, rain is likely to reach the DC-to-Philly-to-NYC corridor by late Wednesday night and continue into Thursday (Thanksgiving Day). Farther to the north, accumulating snow is likely to fall from early Thursday into early Friday across interior, higher elevation locations of northern PA, upstate NY and interior New England with several inches on the table.
Following the departure of the low pressure system to the western Atlantic, a northwesterly flow of air will develop across the northeastern quadrant of the nation bringing much colder-than-normal air from Canada into the Great Lakes, Mid-Atlantic, and Northeast US. The “Great Lakes snow machine” will get turned on with the much colder-than-normal air flowing over the still relatively warm waters of the Great Lakes from later Friday into Saturday and there is likely to be much more in the way of “lake-effect” snow activity during this upcoming cold wave.

A cold front passed through the region earlier today and it’ll turn breezy and cooler following the frontal passage. Low pressure will slide from the middle of the country at mid-week and head towards the northeastern states with an increasing chance of showers and thunderstorms later tomorrow night and on Thursday, Thanksgiving Day. It’ll turn colder and windy to follow this system from Friday into the upcoming weekend.

Low pressure will push eastward across the higher elevations of the western US during the next few days resulting in significant snow accumulations on the order of 1-2 feet from the Sierra Nevada Mountains of easter California to the Colorado Rockies. This same low pressure system will then spill out into the middle of the nation at mid-week and move rather quickly across the Tennessee Valley on Wednesday night and to the Mid-Atlantic coastline by mid-day Thursday. As a result, rain is likely to reach the DC-to-Philly-to-NYC corridor by late Wednesday night and continue into Thursday (Thanksgiving Day) morning. Farther to the north, accumulating snow may fall from Thursday into Friday across interior, higher elevation locations of upstate PA and upstate NY to New England.
Following the departure of the low pressure system to the western Atlantic, a northwesterly flow of air will develop across the northeastern states bringing much colder-than-normal air from Canada into the Great Lakes, Mid-Atlantic and NE US. The “Great Lakes snow machine” will turn on with the much colder-than-normal air flowing over the still relatively warm waters of the Great Lakes. Looking ahead, the influx of much colder-than-normal air into the eastern states by this weekend will begin a cold pattern that is likely to last well into December... one of the coldest starts in many years to the month of December and it will have a “Siberian connection”.

A cold front will approach the region later today bringing with it a chance of PM showers and it’ll turn breezy and cooler on Tuesday following the frontal passage. Low pressure will slide from the middle of the country at mid-week and head towards the northeastern states with an impact around here on here for Thanksgiving Day. Showers and thunderstorms will be possible on Thursday and it'll turning colder and windy to follow into the upcoming weekend.

As a potent upper-level trough rotates around across the northeastern, winds around here will remain quite strong out of the west-northwest and this keep us colder-than-normal for this time of year. High temperatures during the next few days will be confined to the 50’s to go along with mainly sunny skies.
