Discussion
Low pressure passes by to our north this morning and it’ll bring us a bit of freezing rain that can be mixed with sleet and snow for a brief time at the onset. Given the cold ground conditions, even a light precipitation event can result in slippery conditions on the roadways through the mid-morning hours. High pressure returns later today bringing some sunshine to the area and Christmas Day should feature some sunshine as well with moderately cold conditions.
