After bundling up this morning for temperatures in the low 30’s, we will rebound nicely to the upper 40’s by this afternoon. Sunshine should return by about noon allowing your rain gear to have a chance to dry out and probably making you as happy as the Grinch stealing Christmas…

Tomorrow will feature another chance of showers, especially in the morning, because of a weak cold front passing through our region. With temperatures in the low 40’s to upper 30’s, this will be an all rain event, dashing everyone’s hopes for a white Christmas.

Mild Christmas Week Ahead

With highs in the mid 40’s, Santa may overheat on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day during the afternoons while feeling comfy in his red fur suit during the chilly mornings with temperature in the low 30’s. Christmas Eve will be sunny, but clouds will build in throughout the day on Christmas leading to another chance of light rain showers that night.
