Wind gusts will be as high as 25 miles per hour, with stronger gusts along the coast.

The storm will dampen Thanksgiving Day parades but will move quickly. Precipitation will end from west to east starting late Thursday afternoon.

Skies will become clear Thursday night, followed by a sunny but brisk day on Black Friday, Nov. 29. 

High temperatures will be in the mid-40s and near 50 degrees farthest south. Friday will remain blustery, with wind chill values making it feel colder.

Colder temps will prevail over the weekend, although winds will become calmer. Look for mostly sunny skies on Saturday, November 30, and Sunday, Dec. 1, with brisk and chilly conditions.
