Thanksgiving Day weather: In the United States, Thanksgiving is one of the busiest travel weeks of the year, so even ordinary weather can slow roads and airports. The Thanksgiving week weather forecast for 2026 suggests a typical late-November pattern, not a major storm. The Farmers’ Almanac long-range outlook for Monday, Nov. 23, through Thursday, Nov. 26, has predicted mostly cool, mostly dry weather in the Northeast and mild, sunny conditions in the Southeast. It expects snow showers across the Great Lakes, Upper Midwest, northern Plains and Rockies, and rain in the Pacific Northwest. Thanksgiving Day falls on Thursday, Nov. 26.
