Computer models becoming consistent:
Sunday: Likely freezing temperatures to start. Light morning snow showers or flurries will be possible, but we may stay dry until the afternoon hours. Afternoon snow level near 1,000 feet. High temperatures near 40 degrees. Precipitation likely to increase during the afternoon and be occasional into the night.
Sunday Night: Light wind flow expected to be from the west. If so, the snow level will fall to near 300' by Monday morning. Precipitation of .20" could produce grassy dustings all areas, 1-3" near and above 500 feet. Temperatures below 300 feet likely to remain near and above freezing.
Monday: Snow level near 300' all day. Highs reaching near 40 degrees. Snow - rain mix of showers all day. 1-3" possible near and above 300 feet. Sea level will likely remain wet and above freezing. High metro hills total possible snow depth: dusting to 4 inches.
Tuesday & Wednesday: Dry days with a hard morning freeze in the 20s.
Thanksgiving Day & Friday: A push of warm air, may increase east winds, keeping cold air in place, holding highs in the 30s with possible ice and snow at times. I HAVE VERY LITTLE CONFIDENCE DURING THIS PERIOD, PLEASE WATCH THE FORECAST FOR UPDATED.

** Sunday night and Monday's forecast is a close call. The above conclusions assume a light west wind flow. If the path of the low pressure center changes and winds back to the east, all elevations would see possible snow accumulation.
