WITH HIGHS THAT MADE IT INTO THE
SEVENTIES, AND IT'S GOING UP
FROM THERE. TAKE A LOOK AT THIS
THREE DAY HOLIDAY WEEKEND
FORECAST CHRISTMAS EVE TOMORROW
MIX OF SUN AND CLOUDS? THAT'S
NOT A RECORD BREAKER. BELIEVE IT
OR NOT. THE RECORD HIGH IS 88.
THAT'S ONE OF THE HIGHEST
FOR CHRISTMAS DAY THAT WOULD
ECLIPSE A RECORD BY TWO DEGREES.
AND THEN ON SUNDAY, ONCE AGAIN
WILL BE IN RECORD TERRITORY AT
IS 83 DEGREES. WE'RE GOING TO BE
GOING TO SEE SOME OF THE WARMEST
TEMPERATURES IN THE ENTIRE
COUNTRY. IN TEXAS THE NEXT FEW
TRAVEL WEATHER. UP IN CHICAGO.
IT'S GOING TO BE A DRIZZLY DAY
TOMORROW WITH ABOVE NORMAL
TEMPERATURES, THOUGH, WILL START
OUT EARLY IN THE MORNING AROUND
39 JUST A SLIGHT CHANCE OF A FEW
RAIN SHOWERS. MAYBE SOME WET
FLAKES OF SNOW IN NEW YORK, NOT
ANTICIPATING ANY BIG PROBLEMS
THERE. THE BIG ISSUES WILL BE
WAY DOWN THROUGH L. A AND SAN
DIEGO INTO LOS VEGAS WITH RAIN
AND SOME FLOODING ISSUES AND
SOME VERY HEAVY MOUNTAIN SNOW.
RESORTS THERE HAS SEEN 60 INCHES
OF SNOWFALL IN JUST THE LAST TWO
DAYS. AND AS WE HEAD THROUGH THE
DAY WE'RE GOING TO SEE
TEMPERATURES PRETTY MILD ACROSS
THE CENTRAL US AND THAT WILL
CONTINUE AS WE HEAD THROUGH THE
AFTERNOON. WELL ACTUALLY BE
WARMER HERE IN THE METROPLEX.
FLORIDA AROUND MIAMI. 76 WAS OUR
HIGH TODAY 50 TO THE LOW 56 37
THE AVERAGES FOR THIS TIME OF
QUICKLY, BUT MINUS ONE THE
RECORD LOW FOR TODAY THAT WAS
SET ON THIS ST BACK IN 1989,
SOME MOUNTAIN CEDAR BLOWING IN
, YOUR ALLERGY SUFFERERS IF YOU
HAD SOME ISSUES TODAY, THAT WAS
LIKELY THE CULPRIT. CURRENT
TEMPERATURE READINGS ARE IN THE
SIXTIES ACROSS THE BOARD. ONCE
SCENARIO ACROSS TEXAS, OKLAHOMA
AS FAR EAST AS JACKSON,
MISSISSIPPI. THERE'S THE
ACTIVITY. THIS PACIFIC STORM
SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA AND IN THE
LOS VEGAS WHERE THEY'VE HAD SOME
FLOODING ISSUES THERE. I WANTED
THE CASINOS REPORTING SOME
FLOODWATERS GETTING INTO THE
UNDERGROUND PARKING GARAGES. BUT
THE SPECIFIC STORM SYSTEMS WHICH
WILL TYPICALLY BRING US RAIN, OR
EVEN SOMETIMES WINTRY
PRECIPITATION, THIS TIME OF THE
YEAR. THAT IS NOT GOING TO BE
THE CASE BECAUSE THE STORM TRACK
IS SUPPRESSED WELL TO OUR NORTH
, HIGH PRESSURE IN CONTROL IN
THE NORTHERN GULF OF MEXICO, AND
THAT COLD AIR NO SIGNS OF IT
COMING OUR WAY ANYTIME SOON. IT
IS LOCKED WELL TO OUR NORTH 60
DEGREES AT WAKE UP, AND THEN
THE WAY UP TO 83 DEGREES
TOMORROW AFTERNOON. PAIR OF 80
TWO'S THERE FOR SATURDAY,
CHRISTMAS DAY AND SUNDAY MONDAY
TEMPERATURES DO START TO
GRADUALLY COME DOWN ALONG WITH
THE COLD FRONT LATE WEDNESDAY
THAT WILL TRIM US BACK TO 67 ON
