After a mostly sunny day on Wednesday, Nov. 27, the storm system will shift eastward during the night on Thanksgiving Eve, gathering more moisture from the Gulf of Mexico and later the Atlantic as it gains strength through Thanksgiving night on Thursday, Nov. 28.
If the storm tracks farther north, as is now expected, downpours are expected along the I-95 corridor, and heavy snow is expected in some areas, especially in upstate New York and Pennsylvania, and New England.

"How much the storm strengthens in the East will determine not only how far north it will track but also the approximate boundary between rain and snow and whether the snow struggles to accumulate or piles up enough to create slippery travel," said AccuWeather Chief On-Air Meteorologist Bernie Rayno.
Locally dense fog, along with raw conditions, is also anticipated on Thanksgiving which could be a super soaker for areas along the East Coast farther north, especially in the coastal areas of the Northeast.
The system is expected to move faster than predicted, leading to a mostly sunny day on Black Friday, Nov. 29, and temperatures in the mid-40s to around 50 degrees.
