While the chance of seeing lowland snow this month appears minimal, Thanksgiving week could bring some flakes to the mountain passes, and brisk temperatures to Puget Sound.
Some signs cropping up that #Thanksgiving week may bring traditional November weather back to the region. This would include mountain snow & cooler temps in the lowlands.
