PM Update: Rain likely tonight, then more gray skies and mild temperatures Thursday.

Much of the region could pick up a several-hour soaking. Rain is mainly out of here by sunrise.

The gloomy days are piling up. Despite the clouds, mild air still won out, with temperatures reaching the mid-50s locally. Although we’ve seen a lot of cloudiness, rain hasn’t been easy to come by. It looks as though we will change that up a bit tonight, potentially with the most rain we’ve seen fall since mid-November.

Through Tonight: Showers are increasingly likely through the evening. Overnight, a steadier rain will develop in the region. It’s hard to pinpoint the maximum zone, but someone could see half an inch or so. I think most of the area will see at least a few tenths of an inch, with some spots more, and the least to the north. Lows will be mainly in the mid- and upper 40s. Winds will be light, from the north-northeast. Patchy fog may develop late.

Tomorrow (Thursday): Overnight rain should end near sunrise. Some fog and drizzle could persist into the morning. I don’t think we will see much rain during the day, but clouds will hold tough. Winds will slowly turn to come from the south as temperatures approach the mid-50s for highs.

It’s 14 degrees here and it’s only getting colder. My kiddo is thrilled because the ice on all the lakes is thick and he’s fishing during his Christmas break from school.
