Skies are mostly clear early this Friday morning although there is some patchy fog in some areas, temperatures range from the low 40s here in Clifton to the low 30s in the colder inland valleys, winds are nearly calm.
A high pressure ridge over the area will cause the unseasonably warm December weather to continue today through the weekend with dry conditions and temperatures reaching the 60s each day, some record highs are likely. Yesterday my 43 year Clifton record was tied at 61 degrees, today’s record is 60 set back in 1979 and we should break that.
A cold front will be moving into the area on Monday which will likely produce showers, temperatures again will reach the 60s.
Following the cold front it will be only slight cooler with highs well up into the 50s on both Tuesday and Wednesday.
