Today's weather outlook

Remember the two storm systems that impacted the West and East coasts on Wednesday? They're still around and keeping many locked in umbrella weather. Some movement does finally happen on the East Coast when the stubborn front shifts east in the very late night hours on Thursday and early Friday morning.

Although the intensity of the rain and snow showers will lower throughout the day on Thursday, West Coast residents will still need umbrellas and to pay attention to mountain passes, due to snow, if traveling.

The wet and snowy weather also reaches into the northern Rockies and Great Basin from this same storm.

Heavy rain and mountain snow continue on Thursday, keeping western residents locked in umbrella weather.Heavy rain and mountain snow continue on Thursday, keeping western residents locked in umbrella weather.
