I DOUBT WE GET MORE THAN SOME SCATTERED CLOUDS FOR THAT -- FROM THAT. KNOW THIS THE COLD AIR INTERACTING WITH THE MOISTURE, BRINGING SOME SNOW FROM THE GREAT LAKES INTO THE NORTHEAST. THIS COULD BE A PRETTY BIG SNOW MAKER IN THE ADIRONDACKS AND INTERIOR PORTIONS OF MAINE. IT WILL BRING A PRETTY SERIOUS COOLDOWN FOR ALL AREAS AS WE HEAD INTO THE WEEKEND. IT STAYS PRETTY CHILLY FOR FRIDAY. AS FAR AS SNOW GOES, WE WILL HAVE A COUPLE BLIPS ON THE RADAR GOING TO THE COUPLE WEEK'S GOAL -- GOING THROUGH THE NEXT COUPLE WEEKS. IT IS NOT THAT NOVEMBER SNOW IS UNHEARD OF -- THE EARLIEST SNOW WE HAVE EVER HAD WAS FLURRIES IN -- ON NOVEMBER 1. THE MOST IN NOVEMBER WAS NOVEMBER 21 100 FIVE YEARS AGO -- ONLY TWICE IN RECORDED HISTORY -- THE MOST IN NOVEMBER WAS NOVEMBER 21
