Overview
- A weak front brings hit-or-miss light showers Monday evening with minimal accumulation, leaving many areas under a tenth of an inch.
- Election Day features widespread gusts of roughly 25–40 mph that could cause blowing leaves, rough coastal conditions, and isolated power issues.
- Another fast-moving system arrives Wednesday night with a brief round of showers, followed by renewed winds and a cooler push on Thursday.
- Higher elevations may see a rain–snow mix as colder air follows midweek, while most lower elevations stay mainly rain or dry.
- Late week turns more active with additional showers Friday into Saturday and marked regional contrasts, with the Northeast/Midwest cooler and parts of the South and Florida warming into the 70s and 80s after the recent clock change to earlier sunsets.
