As cold air pours over the region, parts of the Northeast will receive their first flakes of the season while temperatures could reach the 30s in parts of the South.
ACCUWEATHER GLOBAL WEATHER CENTER – NOVEMBER 11, 2021 – November has begun on a chillier note following a record or near-record warm October in much of the South and East. The last few days have offered a brief respite from the recent chill in the East, but AccuWeather forecasters are advising residents not to get used to the milder weather.
Generally dry and mild weather is expected through Thursday, but the pattern will change by the end of the week as a much stronger cold front moves toward the East Coast.
“A cold front associated with a strong storm system which will track northeastward out of the Plains before heading into south-central Canada later this week is expected to reach the Eastern Seaboard Friday,” said AccuWeather Meteorologist Carl Babinski.
The air ahead of the front will be warm enough for precipitation to fall in the form of rain throughout the East. Any snow will be reserved for the Dakotas and northern portions of Minnesota and Michigan. However, that may not be the case by the weekend.
Another cold front will reinforce the cooler air by Saturday. Temperatures will fall to near normal in locations such as New York City and Philadelphia to start the weekend. Across inland locations, temperatures will fall below normal.
