Chief Meteorologist Patrick Rockey's First Warning Forecast
Jack Frost was sure nipping at our noses on this Christmas morning. Most of us woke up to temperatures in the teens again.
But we are looking forward to a slow warm up during the last week of 2022.
In fact, we could start the new year with temperature is close to 70°!
Monday, however, will be another chilly day. We will start the day with temperatures in the teens and low 20s, despite lots of sunshine.
By the afternoon will pick up a few clouds and see the mercury warm into the upper 30s in the lower 40s.
On Tuesday we will tack on a few more degrees, with highs in the mid 40s under partly cloudy skies.
By mid week, we will climb into the upper 40s in the lower 50s with plenty of sunshine.
Thursday brings the return of warmer-than-normal temperatures.
Expect highs in the mid 50s under mostly sunny skies.Friday brings increasing clouds and increasing temperatures.
It looks like we will be topping out in the lower 60s.
And the warming trend continues into the New Year’s weekend. Unfortunately, the dry trend does not.
We are looking at high temperatures in the mid 60s on Saturday, despite plenty of clouds. By Saturday night, we will have a chance of showers ahead of an approaching cold front.
It looks like those showers will linger into the first part of your Sunday, the first day of 2023. And it looks like it will be a mild start to the new year with high temperatures close to 70°!
