What weather to expect for Thanksgiving traveling

With all eyes out on the Thanksgiving forecast, what can travelers expect as they hit the road? Here’s a closer look.

Here’s the travel outlook across Colorado Thursday through Sunday. Thanksgiving looks awesome if you’re driving in the lower elevations; however, it could be snowy along the Continental Divide.

Friday will be windy with ongoing mountain snow. So, travel will be fair on Friday: so-so. Saturday could feature poor traveling conditions across the state with rain and snow, but it likely won’t be a high impact event in the lower terrain.

Now let’s take a look across the rest of the country. Friday offers chances for rain and storms across the Midwest through the southeast. Showers are expected along the West Coast. Snow will be falling over the Rockies.

On Saturday, snow will continue over the Rocky Mountains with showers and storms tracking off toward the east. Finally on Sunday, travelers – a heads-up! There could be more snow over the northern Rockies; things could be slick there. Travel could also be slowed in the Midwest where a rain/snow mix could occur.
