Cold air and more snow just in time for the start of winter
A mix of rain and snow showers will continue to be widespread through the late afternoon on Wednesday.
There should be a period of quiet weather before scattered snow showers work back in closer to midnight and taper off before sunrise on Thursday.
There may be a morning flurry on Thursday. Otherwise, Thursday will be seasonably chilly, with high temperatures in the low to mid-30s.
Flurries and light snow will return to the forecast for Friday, more so during the second half of the day. High temperatures will range from the low to mid-30s. There could be some minor accumulations on Friday and Friday night.
Saturday marks the start of the winter season, also known as the Winter Solstice or the shortest day of the year. Morning temperatures will start in the low 20s, and afternoon temperatures will be high in the upper 20s. Light snow showers will return to the forecast on Saturday and Saturday night; little or no additional snow accumulation is expected.
Sunday will be dry and feature more sunshine, but it remains cold; low morning temperatures will fall to the upper teens, with high afternoon temperatures in the low 20s.
After a quiet stretch of colder days on Sunday and Monday, rain and snow showers will be possible on Christmas Eve, with showers possibly on Christmas Day.
