Even with dominant sunshine during the day, highs will struggle to climb out of the 50s, and it will still be breezy at times.

It will still be cold Wednesday morning, albeit a few degrees warmer than Tuesday.

Expect a few extra clouds by Wednesday afternoon with highs returning to the upper 60s.

By Christmas weekend, temperatures climb back into the 70s, but rain chances will be on the rise.

A stray shower could sneak in for Christmas Eve, but most of the day appears to be dry.

Christmas Forecast

The higher rain chances arrive Christmas Day, with another system sliding in from the Gulf of Mexico.

This system won’t be nearly as strong as last weekend’s storm, but rain chances increase to 40% Christmas Day.
