Temperatures Tuesday afternoon responded nicely to the sunny skies warming area wide into the mid and upper 40s. Rockford's high reached 49 degrees which was our warmest we've been all month and 17 degrees above average! And while temperatures are expected to remain above average throughout the week, the days may not be quite as nice thanks to more cloud cover, drizzle, and periodic light rain showers.
As we hang on to a few clouds overhead Tuesday evening, temperatures are beginning to fall back into the upper 30s. Winds are light so there isn't much of a wind chill. Skies will remain partly cloudy as high pressure moves across the northern Great Lakes overnight. This will help bring temperatures down into the upper 20s for the start of Wednesday. There may also be a little fog to start the day.
Temperatures will warm back into the low 40s Wednesday afternoon, but clouds will be in abundance with a few spots of drizzle developing mid to late afternoon. Drizzle will then turn to a few light rain showers during the evening with only a few hundredths of an inch falling when all said and done. As the precipitation comes to an end Wednesday night, we could see fog develop through early Christmas morning. Highs Christmas afternoon will reach the low 40s under mostly cloudy skies.
