<p>Areas in southeast Houston quickly took cover as a tornado-warned storm clipped some of the northeast suburbs. Multiple people saw this on the ground, with confirmation coming from radar that afternoon, as well. Below is the lifespan of the storms, as it went into areas close to The Woodlands and Spring.</p><video src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/11/2025-11-25 08-19-33-1764084060214.mp4" controls="true" width="100%"></video><p>The storm left pretty extensive damage in its wake, toppling trees and damaging roofs early Monday afternoon.

Alana Cameron was born and raised in Canada in the city of Mississauga, just outside of Toronto. Alana is the oldest of 4 siblings, all close in age, and grew up playing outside with them in all types of weather. After graduating high school, Alana moved to study at the University of British Columbia in Kelowna for a year before transferring to Dalhousie University in Halifax, Nova Scotia where she completed a Bachelor of Science in Physics and Atmospheric Science. Upon completion, Alana moved back to Toronto where she completed a post-grad degree in Meteorology at York University. After her post-grad, she went on to complete another post-grad in Broadcast Journalism - TV News at Fanshawe College in London, Ontario. During her final year of studies she had the privilege of interning with the best in the business in Canada at The Weather Network. Once she finished her internship, she got the call from small-town Denison, Texas where she accepted a job as an on-air meteorologist at KTEN-TV, right in tornado alley, covering severe weather from Sherman/Denison (North Texas) to Ada (Southern Oklahoma). After the most active tornado season Oklahoma had seen in May 2019 (105 tornadoes!) Alana is excited to join WeatherNation to cover weather all across the nation.

<p>A low pressure system blowing through the High Plains has already produced upwards of half a foot of snow, with an isolated total of 15" in Montana, and winds up to nearly 80 mph! This system will continue producing snow, rain, high winds, and reduced visibility across the northern Plains, Upper Midwest, and Great Lakes through tomorrow.</p><h1>Wind Outlook</h1><p>Winds have already gusted up to nearly 80 mph in the High Plains, Wasta, and Midland, South Dakota has both produced 78 mph gusts! With travel ramping up, the bigger concern might have to be higher-profile vehicles on plenty of east-west facing interstates. High Wind Warnings and Wind Advisories are now in effect from South Dakota and Nebraska, through Iowa, Illinois, and Wisconsin, and into Ohio as well.</p><h1><img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/11/Screenshot 2025-11-25 105130-1764093096672.png">Snow Outlook</h1><p>Widespread <strong>Winter Weather Alerts</strong> remain in effect from North Dakota to Michigan as this low-pressure system drops in. Heavy snow, with rates of 1-2" per hour, combined with wind gusts upwards of 40-50 mph, will make driving extremely dangerous. Whiteout conditions could make travel nearly impossible.</p><p><img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/11/Screenshot 2025-11-25 162459-1764113136150.png"><strong>Blizzard Warnings</strong> are in place for portions of South Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin, and northern Michigan. When visibility is reduced to 1/4 or less, winds are greater than 35 mph, and this lasts for 3 hours, this classifies a winter storm as a blizzard.</p><p><img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/11/Screenshot 2025-11-25 162520-1764113508024.png"></p><p>Since this system is fast-moving, the Dakotas will only see widespread totals from 1-4", with heavier amounts along I-29 south of Fargo. Totals will get heavier through the heart of Minnesota, reaching up to 6-12". However, where the heaviest totals are expected, in Northern Wisconsin and the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, one to two FEET of accumulation is possible. Some locations could see closer to three feet, where enhanced by Lake Effect.</p><p><img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/11/Screenshot 2025-11-25 163213-1764113542457.png"></p><h1>Timing</h1><p>Snowfall is escalating quickly as the low moves east. By Tuesday evening, heavy snowfall rates will be moving through the I-35 corridor between Duluth and Minneapolis. Travel across Minnesota is not advised. Overnight, rain will turn to snow across Wisconsin and the Great Lakes. Cold air on the back side of the low will make for a blustery Wednesday. Lake effect snow will continue in Michigan through Thanksgiving. Eventually, this moisture will work into the Northeast.</p><video src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/11/11-25_rnc bams3k 12z-1764093152720.mp4" controls="true" width="100%"></video><h1>Temperatures</h1><p>Expect a significant cool down. Low temperatures take a dive into the teens and single digits by Thanksgiving morning.</p><p><img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/11/Screenshot 2025-11-25 105556-1764093372852.png"></p><p>For more details, tune in to your Central Regional Forecast :30 past the hour.</p>

<p>A low-pressure system <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.weathernationtv.com/news/windy-system-blows-through-upper-midwest-this-week"><strong>currently moving through the Northern Plains</strong></a> is expected to move into the northeast as we head into Wednesday and Thanksgiving. This, unfortunately, could complicate holiday plans.</p><h1><img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/11/Screenshot 2025-11-23 112422-1763922444302.png">TIMING</h1><p>Widespread rain will build in from the south, as a warm front lifts through the Eastern U.S. Things will quiet down a bit into Wednesday, with the exception of a few storms along the cold front. As the low from the Great Lakes starts to wrap up with the first low in the larger trough, cold air will start to infuse into the system. We'll see a few more scattered showers late Wednesday, but then the focus becomes Lake Effect Snow for Thanksgiving. By Thursday night, snow showers will become a bit more widespread across New York state, but the heaviest totals will be with LES and at higher elevations.</p><video src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/11/11-25_rne-1764093980695.mp4" controls="true" width="100%"></video><h1>WINDS</h1><p>If you're holding a balloon in the parade, the winds are what concern you. It doesn't look like it will be windy enough to affect much of the parade, but balloons might have to be lowered to help offset winds funneling between buildings.</p><video src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/11/NE wind-1764084248642.mp4" controls="true" width="100%"></video><p>All of this to say - Thanksgiving parades are probably alright in the northeast. Unless they're in the western New York area, those winds will be breezy at times, but the direction is most important! A westerly wind will carry warmer air temperatures from the lake waters into much cooler air temperatures behind all of this. The result? Thanksgiving Lake Effect Snow! Impressive bands have been noted on some longer-range models around Erie and Buffalo.</p><h2>Winter Alerts</h2><p><strong>Winter weather alerts </strong>have been issued for portions of western New York once the lake effect machine gets cranking. Most of these winter weather alerts are for 7" of snowfall or more and winds as high as 50 mph. These combined could lead to whiteout conditions for Thanksgiving travel.</p><p><img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/11/Screenshot 2025-11-25 110430-1764094007567.png"><img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/11/Screenshot 2025-11-25 110437-1764094013062.png"></p><p>For more on this forecast, be sure to join us at :10 past the hour for your east regional forecast.</p>

<p>Strong to severe storms continue their march eastward this morning. Attention turns to areas of Georgia, Alabama, and Mississippi today, with another batch of storms expected later today. The Storm Prediction Center has us under a <strong>SLIGHT </strong>(level 2 out of 5) risk for severe storms across Texas and the lower Mississippi River Valley.</p><p><img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/11/Screenshot 2025-11-25 105713-1764093557438.png"></p><h2>Storm Timing</h2><p>Storms continue to move east along the cold front through tonight. Storms look to be a bit more isolated across east central and southeast Mississippi through central Alabama and into northwest Georgia.</p><video src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/11/11-25 rsw-1764093747008.mp4" controls="true" width="100%"></video><h2>Rainfall</h2><p>The flooding risk has become more isolated as the front picks up speed, but we could pick up a few quick inches of rainfall across the south and southeast through tonight and into early Wednesday morning as the front exits over the Atlantic.</p><p><img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2025/11/Screenshot 2025-11-25 110312-1764093799369.png"></p>
