Another mild day for all the Veterans today

More clouds & still mild for Veterans Day

The sun takes a back seat Wednesday. Expect more clouds with highs back into the upper 50s and low 60s. One more mild day!

If you're heading to the Veterans Day parade at 12:30 p.m., grab a jacket, but thankfully you shouldn't need the umbrella. Itll be cloudy and cool, but pretty manageable for mid-November.

A few showers sneak in Wednesday evening. Rain increases by midnight and pockets of heavy rain will be possible into Thursday.

Thursday is a raw one

By Thursday, were talking chilly rain and gusty winds. Highs will only be around 47. With northerly wind gusts around 30 mph, it will feel even colder.

Some of that rain could come down pretty hard at times as Lake Erie helps give the showers a little extra boost.

As temperatures fall by Thursday evening, rain will transition over to a wintry mix and snow showers by Thursday night and into Friday.

Wait, are those snowflakes Friday?

Snow is looking more and more likely for Friday.

Friday turns even colder with highs struggling to around 40. Lake effect showers will continue, and we could start mixing some wet snowflakes in with the rain.

The air higher above us will be cold enough for snowflakes to form. Most should melt on the trip down, but some may not melt completely before reaching us.

So don't be surprised if you look out the window Friday and see cold raindrops and a few big, wet snowflakes falling at the same time.

This doesn't look like a big road-impact situation. Roads should mainly stay wet. It's more of a "Was that our first snowflake?" kind of setup.

Still chilly this weekend

We'll keep a few lake effect rain or wet snow showers around Saturday, but there should be fewer of them. Highs only make it to around 44, so the heavier jacket isn't going anywhere.

Sunday looks a little better. We'll get more sunshine with only an isolated lake effect shower possible and highs around 45.

And if you're heading to the Browns game, layer up. We're talking legit November football weather. Chilly, around the 40s, and just enough of a lake effect chance that you'll want to keep an eye on the forecast before heading out.

The wintry precip will linger the longest across the Snowbelt Region. It could take until Monday!
