Once the second wave of rain pushes through this evening, temperatures will plummet to more seasonal levels. Some people could see a few snow showers as the system pulls away early Saturday morning.
A temperate stretch will follow, with highs in the 30s and 40s and lows just below freezing most nights.
Several forecast models hint at a snow shower or flurries on Christmas Eve or Christmas Day, but it my just be wishful thinking.

Friday night: 50s to 30s rain
Saturday: 37/28 cloudy
Sunday: 39/32 cloudy
Christmas Eve: 37/27 flurries?
Christmas Day: 33/25 flurries?
