12/22- Here comes a miserable christmas eve

Good Monday everyone- the last full day before the Christmas break for many!

Today is going to be the second best day of the week, but unfortunately that's not saying much at all. Mostly cloudy skies likely prevail today with some showers, and the same can be said for tomorrow (though tomorrow's showers should be more widespread). Christmas Eve still looks utterly miserable, but now it gets even worse because it looks like it will last around Christmas morning. The storm finally moves on late Thursday before Friday and Saturday are pretty good, but a nor'easter moves in Sunday, but what we get from that (if anything) is still very much up in the air.

Let's look ahead-

Today & Tomorrow- Scattered showers/flurries. No accumulation. Highs in the low 40s.

Christmas Eve (Steve's clunker of the week)- Pouring rain, strong wind, tree limbs down and power outages possible. 2-4" of rain possible. Highs in the mid-50s (Yes, really!)

Christmas Day- Pouring rain in the morning, clearing slowly through the day and dry by mid afternoon. Highs in the mid-40s

Friday/Saturday (Steve's picks of the week)- Sunny with highs in the high 30s/low 40s

Sunday- Heavy rain/snow possible. I won't forecast highs yet as this also depends on storm track.

Today in weather history- December 22, 1993- Somehow, 5 inches of snow fall in Turin, NY...in 20 minutes. This works out to an average of 15" an hour...or one inch every four minutes!!!
