Snow is absent on Sunday but cold air continues to bite the region as highs stay below 20 and lows move closer to 0. The work week sees more normalized temperatures and a quick return of snow, serving as a preview of the Christmas holiday conditions.

A bout of snow showers comes around for Christmas Eve, likely tapering in the evening and before midnight. Both the eve of and Christmas Day see high temperatures in the mid to upper 30s, hurting the chances of a White Christmas. High temperatures could get back to the 40s by Friday.

Warmer conditions help 2024 end with above average temperatures and more pleasant conditions. Snow showers are not expected from Christmas all the way into the next weekend.
