Discussion              

Low pressure will bring us more rain over the next couple of days and then weak high pressure will try to dry it out some on Friday…the last day of 2021. Strong low pressure will then impact the area on Saturday, New Year’s Day, producing very mild conditions around here and additional rainfall. After another mild and damp day on Sunday, sharply colder air will push into the region on Monday following the passage of a strong cold front.
