Another cold front will approach on Monday, but we will remain dry, with highs in the low to mid 40s.

The front will cross Monday night into Tuesday morning, allowing colder air to enter the region.

Temperatures by Tuesday morning will be in the upper 10s to low 20s, reaching the upper 30s on Tuesday afternoon.

The rest of the week looks seasonable, with highs in the low to mid 40s.

This colder pattern looks to stick around through at least mid-month so it appears that January will not only usher in the New Year, it will usher in actual winter like temperatures and perhaps our first chances at snowfall in the eastern US!
