Then, get ready for a warm-up. Overnight lows fall down to nearly 20 degrees on Friday with highs in the mid to upper 30s. Okay, so it's not really the warm-up everyone is looking for. But the temps will still climb a bit.

On Saturday and Sunday, Ron Smiley says we'll see highs in the 40s.

After that, the warm-up we're all actually hoping for will arrive just in time for Christmas. Monday through Christmas Day on Wednesday, we'll see highs in the 50s.
