As warm as today is, it is not pleasant to be outdoors due to the strong winds.  We have a large cold front coming tomorrow and temperatures will be dropping all day.  We have reached our high of 50F but the winds make it feel much colder.  Snow is in the forecast but we aren’t expecting a lot.  We have to get an inch to be considered a white Christmas and it is questionable if that will happen.

Our 3:45 PM temperature is 50F (10C), the humidity is 57% and winds are from the SSE at 9-18 mph, gusting to 29 mph.  Skies are overcast.  The pressure is 29.60 in (1002.4 mb) and falling.  The wind chill is 43F (6C) and the dew point is 34F (1C).  Visibility is 10 miles.  Yesterday’s high was 37F (3C) and the overnight low was 34F (1C).  Sunrise was at 8:05 AM and sunset will be at 5:06 PM.
