Rain/Snow mix lingers into New Year's Eve

Thanks to an area of low pressure sliding to the south of the Stateline, the last morning commute of 2024 is going to be a wet one. 

Precipitation so far has been in the form of a chilly rain, though we can expect snow to mix in at times as temperatures flirt with the freezing mark. Roads will be wet and may feature a slick spot or two. Worth using extra caution if traveling.  

As we push forward, temperatures won't climb much, remaining in the low to mid 30s. This will be cool enough for flurries and snow showers to remain a possibility into the early to mid afternoon, though in a more brief and scattered fashion. Snow accumulations during the day are unlikely. Temperatures will briefly touch the upper 30s before falling into the low 20s overnight. Those heading out for New Year's Eve shenanigans, dress in layers.


Tranquil, but breezy conditions will likely stick around for New Year’s Day, with clouds giving way to a few peeks of sun. With a northwest breeze in place, we greet 2025 with a cooler, yet seasonable start with highs reaching the upper 20s.

Another round of bitterly cold Arctic air filters in behind a weak disturbance Thursday. This will leave highs below-average beginning Friday, with highs remaining below early-January standards through the weekend and into next week. Overnight lows will fluctuate from the upper single-digits to the lower teens during this stretch.
