A robust cold front will pass through early this morning bringing a chance for rain and snow showers. Air temperatures are above freezing, so roads will likely just be wet. There isn't a lot of moisture with this system. Only a few hundredths of precipitation is expected. Skies will quickly clear and then it's all about the whipping winds and tumbling temperatures. The National Weather Service has issued a Wind Advisory in effect until 6pm. Sustained winds of 15-25 mph are expected with gusts over 40 mph possible. Wind chills will fall from the 30s into the 20s for much of the day, so dress warmly. Wind chills will remain in the low 20s for tonight's National Christmas Tree Lighting.
FRIDAY:

Mostly Sunny, Breezy
Highs: 35-40

Highs: 40-45
Winds: Southwest 10-15 mph
