Here's when heavier rain and storms return to the Tri-State

We only cool off into the low and mid 40s for Saturday morning, which is more typical for an afternoon in late December.

Behind a weak cold front, it will be a touch cooler Saturday. While it will be mostly cloudy, we should stay dry as we warm up into the mid 50s.

In the second half of the weekend, our next storm system will begin to move towards Cincinnati. A warm front will bring a few light hit and miss showers overnight Saturday into Sunday morning. Some of this light spotty rain will stay with us throughout the day Sunday, so take the rain gear with you to the Bengals game, just in case. Although gloomy, it will be warm with upper 60s!

The cold front attached to the storm system will arrive Sunday night, triggering a line of heavier rain and storms moving from west to east. A couple of these storms could become strong enough to produce a few areas of damaging wind, but the overall severe weather threat is low.

It will also get windy behind the cold front as much colder weather blows in. This could change the last little bit of rain into snow early Monday morning. We should be dry by the morning commute.

Monday will be cold and windy as the frigid weather keeps blowing in. Most of the day will be in the low 30s with wind chills in the teens.

The cold weather settles in Tuesday. After starting the day in the teens, we only warm into the upper 20s in the afternoon with a mix of sun and clouds.

For the last day of 2025, we will be in the mid 30s Wednesday afternoon.

Just as we kick off the new year, we could see some light snow Thursday morning. The afternoon will be drier with low 30s.

We stay in the 30s as we head into the weekend.
