For holiday weekend travelers

"Amid The Falling Snow..." (in Iowa!)
-2005 Single by Enya in the album Amarantine  (Youtube music video)

9:00 PM EST 11/21 - Taking a trip in the week ahead? (Or wondering about winter?)

We're watching the long range for you and indications are this year's busy travel season may leave behind one passenger NO ONE is going to miss: Bad weather (at least in the East.)

With heavy snow having blanketed Iowa and parts of the Midwest, perhaps some will slide more easily into holiday mode knowing that winter is tapping at the door. With this being the "last normal weekend" before the holiday headrush hits - we offer one weather map below worth of giving out this early. The short version for the Eastern U.S.:

1) High pressure dominates the pattern through this Friday.

2) Morning chill in the 30s with afternoon sun in the 50s.

3) BEST of all, regarding rainfall, a whole lotta nothin' on that map for travelers launching into the traffic adventure on Wednesday and Thursday.

As for the snowy home image above, this was Saturday afternoon outside Chicago, as captured by Forecaster Jake from Iowa State University, where nearly 14" fell in just one day. Boy where they ever pumped about that! Scenes like this certainly put Powderhounds into that "snow on the mind" mood, with even more hungry for our seasonal forecast in final stages of review. For now, here's a prelim winter Q & A to help you plan ahead:
