Chief Meteorologist Patrick Rockey's First Warning Forecast:
If you've need some chilly air to get you in the holiday spirit, I have good news. A series of cold fronts will send temperatures down and wind speeds up. It's going to get blustery!
Expect lots of sunshine when you wake up on Tuesday morning, with lows mainly in the 30s.
A cold front will cross through the area through the day. Highs will reach the upper 50s, a few degrees cooler than Monday. But it'll feel even cooler than that, as winds ramp up through the day. Expect a gusty NW winds at 10 to 20 with gusts to 30+ mph.
Wednesday will be the coolest day of the week. We'll start the day cold with temperatures in the 30s and wind chills in the 20s. Highs will struggle to break out of the 40s. We will see more sunshine, but it will still be breezy.
But after that, high pressure will dominate our weather. Expect a slow warming trend through the rest of the work week and into the weekend. By Sunday, we'll claw our way back into the lower 70s.
And with high pressure and few clouds, rain chances will remain low until at least early next week when another cold front arrives.
