CLEVELAND — The work week will begin dry, but this will not last long, as Tuesday is expected to see potentially heavy rain. A large storm, spanning over a dozen states, will bring rain on Tuesday, with some lingering showers through Wednesday. The storm will then pull significantly colder air by Thanksgiving and Black Friday.
The heaviest rain will become more likely in time for the Tuesday morning commute. Heavy rain at times could create ponding on the area roads. For regular commuters or those travelling before Thanksgiving, pay extra close attention to the roads, as they'll be slick.
With colder temperatures and lingering moisture, lake effect snow is becoming more likely on Thanksgiving and Black Friday, possibly even extending into Saturday. It is still four or five days away, and there are many moving parts in the atmosphere, including the critical wind direction that is responsible for producing the lake effect. So, expect updates to the forecast. We will keep you posted all throughout the week. Stay tuned!
