As the evening settles, weather forecasts show that rain showers will start soon, setting the stage for a chilly night ahead. With temperatures expected to drop to around 30 degrees Fahrenheit, it’s the perfect setting to snuggle up indoors with a warm drink while listening to the rain tap against the window.
The west wind, blowing at 9 to 15 mph, will add to the chill in the air. With a 100% chance of precipitation, December is clearly showing us its winter side. Don’t be surprised if you see a total nighttime snow accumulation of less than half an inch. While it may not be much, it's a gentle nudge that winter is here.
The shift from rain to snow can create unpredictable weather, adding a sense of excitement to your cozy evening plans. As temperatures drop and the rain begins, think about curling up with your favorite blankets and comfort food to enhance the cozy vibes of the night.

As we approach the end of the workweek, Friday will treat us to a chance of snow showers, especially before 7 am. For those early risers, bundle up! The winter air will be refreshing as you step outside.
Expect lingering cloud cover until mid-morning, gradually clearing up as the day moves on, with highs reaching around 44 degrees. The northwest wind will gust up to 28 mph, making it feel even colder.

Friday Night: An Increase in Clouds
Transitioning from Friday into Friday night, expect an increase in cloud cover as temperatures drop to around 32 degrees. A light south wind will provide some relief, making the atmosphere a bit softer as you enjoy your evening.
While it might not be as interesting as rain, the rising clouds indicate that more winter weather might be on the way this weekend.
Saturday: Rain and Snow Showers Likely
Saturday brings a blend of weather with rain showers likely before 5 pm, followed by a mix of rain and snow showers. The high could reach about 51 degrees, creating an interesting backdrop of rain and snow against the chill.
The wind will start from the south at around 14 mph, shifting westward in the afternoon. With a 70% chance of precipitation, this day is perfect for carrying an umbrella and wearing your warmest layers.
Snow accumulation is not expected to be significant, leaving the landscape more damp than a winter wonderland.

As we roll into Saturday night, snow showers may occur before 8 pm, with evening temperatures dipping to around 23 degrees. This cold night will certainly feel wintry.

Sunday: A Break from the Snow
Looking ahead to Sunday, we can expect mostly sunny skies with highs around 42 degrees. After days of winter weather, this sunny break is a welcome change.
