DAYS 1-5 (DECEMBER 24-28)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Quiet, mainly cloudy, and mild is the theme for Christmas Eve & Christmas Day. A weak disturbance moving slowly through the region will be responsible for the abundant cloudiness along with some isolated patches of rain. If it rains where you are, it won’t last long, but if it happens early today west of I-95, watch for some black ice on untreated surfaces as temperatures sit around freezing to start out the day. Any icing issues will be short lived though as the temperature goes up enough to end it. Some lower level moisture especially in coastal areas can result in low clouds, patchy fog, and a couple spots of drizzle through early Christmas morning. If Rudolph needs to use his nose to help Santa tonight, it will be due to fog patches, not snowy weather. None of that around this time for the holiday! Looking ahead, a milder southerly air flow kicks in Tuesday as a weak ridge of high pressure slides over the region early then offshore. Clouds likely stay somewhat dominant on Tuesday though. When we get to midweek, we’ll be dealing with a larger scale low pressure system. Initially this storm matures and occludes out in the Midwest, and its energy stretches out and weakens as it moves east and northeast, but a redevelopment of the low will likely bring a slug of rain with mild air in place during Wednesday. By Thursday, this is moving beyond our region and we turn slightly colder, with a few rain\/snow showers possible as upper level low pressure drifts over the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DAYS 6-10 (DECEMBER 29 \u2013 JANUARY 2)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Upper level low pressure may produce a few rain\/snow showers December 29. Fair weather with high pressure in control December 30-31. Watching for the approach of low pressure and a return to unsettled weather in the first couple days of the new year but some indications are for this system to be kept to the south with more dry weather here. Temperatures above to near normal with a general cooling trend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DAYS 11-15 (JANUARY 3-7)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
General trend is for a more seasonably chilly pattern but with storminess kept to the south, at least until late in the period when a precipitation threat is possible.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
