When Does Winter Start?

Saturday marks the official start of winter, and while temperatures will dip slightly to the 40s, it’s shaping up to be a dry day.

If you’re planning a weekend getaway or just a stroll to admire Christmas lights, the weather should cooperate.

Christmas Forecast

Looking ahead to Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, the forecast is calling for highs in the 50s and 60s.

It won’t be a white Christmas, but we’ll take the mild weather!

Rain chances make a return early next week, with the best shot for showers on Monday and Tuesday.

Additional rain could develop by late Christmas into Thursday.

While snow lovers might be disappointed, this much-needed precipitation will be a welcome gift after a dry month.
