“I’m putting this on your radar now. We are tracking a storm for Thanksgiving Day,” Boston 25 meteorologist Vicki Graf said in her latest forecast. “This all depends on the location, the track of this low-pressure area and its strength.”

At this time, snow is “likely” in the higher elevations of northern New England, with rain or a wintry mix expected in the Boston area.

“Where we see that rain-snow mix, we’re still trying to find the details,” Graf said. “This storm has not formed yet.”

The storm will clear by Thanksgiving Night, giving way to a clear day for shopping and travel on Black Friday.
