Gusty winds and very dry conditions will lead to a critical to extremely critical fire weather threat over portions of the Central and Southern Plains Thursday. Critical fire weather continues through Friday. Moderate to heavy mountain snow and strong winds will expand into the Northern Rockies Thursday, then into Colorado by Friday. Up to a foot of snow accumulation is possible. Read More >
Overview
An area of low pressure tracked from the mid-Atlantic states to eastern New England on Thanksgiving Day, November 28, 2024. Surface temperatures favored accumulating snowfall for much of the region except for portions of eastern Ulster, Dutchess, Litchfield, much of Berkshire, Columbia and Rensselaer counties which received more rain versus snow and 2 or less inches of accumulation. The highest snowfall accumulations occurred across the eastern Catskills, Schoharie County, the Mohawk Valley, southeastern Adirondacks and southern Vermont where totals between 6 and 15 inches were common with 2 to 6 inches falling elsewhere. This resulted in some travel delays due to snow covered and slippery roads. This event tied the latest first snowfall in Albany at the time which was previously set on November 28, 1999.
