Back End of the Holiday Traveling
















Weatherwise, the traveling on the front end of the holiday weekend was problematic as a combination of rain, sleet, and snow fell on Wednesday. By late Wednesday night most of us had about an inch of snow on our backyards, creating a rare white Thanksgiving.

Most of the snow has already melted and it appears as though the driving conditions on the back end of this holiday weekend will be much better around here. On Saturday and Sunday, a strong storm system will impact some of the states in the southern tier of the country. Snow showers will blanket portions of Colorado, New Mexico, western Kansas, and western Texas. Rain showers will cover portions of east Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Louisiana, and Mississippi. If you are flying into some of these locations you might run into some delays. Otherwise, if you are just doing some driving in the Midwest the trip should be smooth. This storm system is too far to the south to affect us this weekend, but it should bring us a chance for rain on Monday. -ADAM
