Witness the power of suggestion: I have just put that song in your heads.  (You are welcome.)

Here's what to expect for the rest of the month.

My newest tat.Windy and chilly (but with some sun) on Thursday 12/18.  High will be 44, but it'll only feel like 2 with the wind.  Nah, kidding.  But it'll feel like the upper 20s.  Gusty and shit.  Tomorrow night's low will be 28.

Friday 12/19 looks chilly and breezy with more clouds than sun.  Not as windy as Thursday, but still.  It'll feel like 32-ish.  Overnight lows plunge all the way down to 25.

Saturday 12/20 was looking interesting for a snow/rain event, but that's tracking south, so it's looking like a "miss" for us.  I'll say cloudy and chilly with a few light snow showers possible Saturday evening and night.  Temperatures holding steady in the 30s.

On Sunday 12/21 it'll be mostly cloudy but dry.  Highs in the 40s.

Rainy on Monday 12/22 - but that's rain, not snow or sleet.

Some sun on Tuesday 12/23 and rather mild, with highs in the mid 40s.

Wednesday 12/24 looks milder still, with highs in the upper 40s.  Expect breezy conditions with occasional rain showers.

Will we have a white Christmas?

RACIST.

Thursday 12/25 will be seasonably cooler (highs in the upper 30s) and a bit rainy/drizzly.  We could see some light freezing rain/sleet overnight into Friday.  But don't cancel your yuletide debaucheries.

Pattern shift on Friday 12/26: it becomes colder.  High only in the mid 30s and a little brisk.

What about the weekend of the 27th and 28th?

I'm glad you asked.

A cold and icy shitshow, especially on Sunday.  Highs don't even get above freezing.

Monday 12/29 will be sunny and really cold with highs in the 20s and lows in the teens.

Continued cold on Tuesday 12/30 and Wednesday 12/31 (full disclosure: it took me seven tries to type "Wednesday" correctly).  Highs around freezing with some snow showers possible on the 30th.

When will it snow for reals, Monsoon?

January 1st and 5th and 8th and 12th, my good people.  (At least that's what I've got my weather-eye on.)

Have a happy and healthy holiday season.  I mean it.  And happy new year.

Stay tuned for updates!
