The overnight into Monday should remain uneventful as we stay dry, but cloudy. Temperatures tonight will be in the mid to upper 30s with an east wind at 10 mph. Clouds will really pick up past midnight and into early parts of the day on Monday.
Monday morning should start dry, but by 8 to 9 a.m. we will start to see some showers roll into southeast Indiana and Northern Kentucky. The bulk of the rain won't hit the Cincinnati Metro until around midday, with some light to moderate showers. The heaviest of the rain should be gone by 3 to 4 p.m. Rain totals on Monday should stay below a quarter of an inch. The major rainmaker comes in overnight into early Tuesday.
A strong low pressure system, moving through the Mississippi River Valley, will climb north into the Tri-State late Monday and into the early hours of Tuesday. With that we will likely see some heavy rain and even a few thunderstorms. The major impact from this system will be after midnight through about 10 a.m. to 11 a.m. on Tuesday. Heavy rain and gusty winds will be the main impacts, as some areas could see an inch of rain, if not more. Wind gusts as the storms come through could reach up to 40 mph. The heaviest rain should be gone by midday, but there will still be some isolated showers or storms later into the day on Tuesday. Tuesday will also be our warmest day of the week with highs into the upper 50s and low 60s.
Wednesday, the big travel day, does look quiet, albeit cool. Skies will be mostly cloudy with temperatures into the mid to upper 40s. Winds will be from the northwest at 10 to 15.
Thanksgiving starts off chilly with temperatures near freezing. The afternoon however, won't be as chilly with temperatures in the low 50s and dry skies. Sunshine for all those morning Turkey Trots and Turkey Bowls, but the evening does look to become mostly cloudy.
