National Traffic Forecast

 

Rain and Snow in the Pacific Northwest, Cold Surge for the East - 11-10 to 11-12
Updated Tue Nov 10th 2026, 7:34am PST

As the Pacific storm track remains active, expect increased rain and mountain snow in the Pacific Northwest. Meanwhile, the eastern U.S. will see milder temperatures until a cold front moves in by Wednesday night, bringing gusty winds and possible thunderstorms. Heavy rain in southern Texas will decrease, but showers may linger along the Gulf Coast. The Midwest will experience falling temperatures and the potential for wet snow in the upper Great Lakes by Thursday morning.

Pacific Northwest

We're keeping an eye on the I-5 corridor from Seattle, WA to Portland, OR as those commuting on Wednesday will encounter periods of heavy rain, especially near the Olympic Peninsula. Expect a few inches of rain through Thursday morning, with possible snow in higher elevations affecting travel on mountain passes.

Texas and Gulf Coast

In Houston, TX, heavy rain is tapering off today, but travelers on I-10 should watch for lingering showers. The same goes for the Gulf Coast, where US-90 may see wet conditions over the next few days.

Great Lakes to Northeast

Scattered showers will affect roads like I-90 and I-94 on Tuesday and Wednesday. By Wednesday night, a cold front will introduce much colder air, bringing gusty winds to Chicago, IL and Detroit, MI. As the system moves eastward, the cooling will reach the Appalachians and could result in wet snow by Thursday morning. Those traveling on I-80 and I-76 should plan accordingly.

Midwest to Tennessee and Ohio Valleys

Look for gusty winds and possible thunderstorms on Wednesday impacting I-70 and I-75. Temperatures will drop by Wednesday night, so commuters in Columbus, OH and Nashville, TN should prepare for chillier conditions on Thursday morning.

Mid-Atlantic

Frost Advisories are in effect in the eastern parts of North Carolina and Virginia this morning, impacting early travel on I-95. However, milder air will move in by Tuesday afternoon, making for a more pleasant drive by Wednesday.
