BLOG: Thanksgiving Travel Forecast

Warm air has flooded the Mid-Atlantic today. A warm front went through this morning. It's what caused the clouds and fog, but what also brought in the warm air. We topped out in the mid 60s this afternoon, which is about 10 degrees above average. After patchy fog again overnight, we are going right back up to the mid 60s again tomorrow. However, a cold front will be coming through later tomorrow. Not only will it bring some showers and possibly a thunderstorm, but it will also bring an end to this round of warm air.

Cooler and drier air wil return to Maryland on Wednesday. It will be a good travel day for most of the East Coast. But there is another storm heading our way for later in the week, and it will already be over the middle of the country if you are heading in that direction. A warm front will bring some rain into Maryland on Thanksgiving Thursday, then the rain will pick up Thursday night and Friday before this storm gets out of here. Behind it, we will dry out over the weekend - but also cool it down another level. Highs will likely be in the 40s for a lot of us.
