The Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade in New York City is expected to have wet weather with steady rain throughout the morning. Winter storm warnings and advisories are in effect for western Ulster County and Sullivan County, with possible snow accumulation of up to 10 inches in some areas. The parade will have to contend with moderate rain and temperatures in the 40s to 50s, but the wind is not expected to be a major issue for the balloons.
After the parade, the rain is expected to taper off in the afternoon, with rainfall totals of .5-1 inch across the region. The holiday weekend will be mainly dry but colder, with a chance of spotty rain or snow showers on Black Friday. Highs will be in the mid 40s before falling into the 30s to near 40 for the rest of the weekend. The cold temperatures are expected to continue into the first week of December.
While the weather may be challenging for the parade, the rest of the holiday weekend looks to be mainly dry but colder with a mix of sun and clouds. The First Alert Weather team will provide the latest forecasts, live radar, and weather alerts for the Tri-State Area.
