Compared to December averages, today’s high of 41°F is largely in line with typical daytime temperatures for this time of year, although the strong winds and frequent storms create a more dynamic and wintry feel. Noticeable cold is expected on Thursday and Friday, temperatures will be slightly below average and the wind will increase the cold. This pattern highlights the transition to a lively and stormy start to December.
