Dry quiet weather is on tap for the region for the next few days. It will remain cold but above freezing during the daytime hours so it will feel a lot better than this past weekend. Once the holiday week ends, temperatures will trend milder as the return of the 40s leads to the 50s by the end of the year.

Behind this warm-up, you can trade in the winter gear for fall gear once more, along with umbrellas. Rain is expected Sunday late afternoon overnight into Monday. There is another chance for some rain showers as we ring in the new year, we will be monitoring this closely over the next few days.

OVERNIGHT: A few clouds, but mainly clear skies and cold. Lows in the middle to upper 20s.

WEDNESDAY: Mostly sunny with a few clouds passing. Cold but manageable. Highs in the mid-30s. Lows in the low-20s.

THURSDAY: Sun and clouds, not as cold. Highs in the upper-30s. Lows in the mid-20s.

FRIDAY: Sun and clouds, a little milder. Highs in the low-40s. Lows near 30 degrees.
