PURPLE: A mix of snow, sleet, and rain will change over to rain on Tuesday evening before changing back over to snow on early Wednesday morning.  Rainfall amounts of 1 to 2 inches can be expected.  Ice accumulations up to 0.10" will be possible.  Snow accumulations of 2 to 4 inches can be expected, especially on cold, grassy surfaces.


WHITE: A mix of snow, sleet, and rain will change over to all snow by Tuesday night.  The precipitation will end by Wednesday morning with accumulations of 3 to 6 inches.

The storm will exit quickly on Wednesday however snow showers will be a lingering threat into Thanksgiving morning.  Temperatures will peak in the mid to upper 50's along the coast, upper 40's to lower 50's just northwest of the New York City and Philadelphia metropolitan areas, and lower to mid 40's over the northern interior by early Wednesday morning.  Winds will veer from the southeast to the northwest at 10 to 20 mph, increasing to 15 to 30 mph from the northwest by Thanksgiving morning.

Should the track of this low pressure system shift west or east by 30 miles or more, significant changes to this forecast will have to be made.  At this time, there are no indications of such a shift.
