Christmas Eve. is dry then, Christmas day, beware of freezing drizzle Christmas Morning, an icy mix, at the start

Fortunately, the start of the rain and ice is slow and may allow some warming to occur first.

A freezing drizzle could occur early on Christmas morning ,sleet, freezing rain mix might begin in the afternoon or evening on Dec. 25th, Friday. Areas nearest the coast should have only a brief period of light icing conditions. But, that spells trouble if your car hits an icy spot.

Significant icing problems could occur further inland.

Plain rain for Saturday. There might be heavy rain and even some flooding. Good bye snow cover.

Cold air damming could cause prolonged icing, far enough inland, Friday. We need a good southerly wind to bring in the warmer air.

Inland ( Sussex, Warren, W. Morris, W. Passaic counties ) areas may get into problems Friday afternoon and evening.

NEW YEAR'S early look: Snowy, possibly, so get your snow boots ready for Times Square.

There are storms marching across the Pacific and storminess is ahead. So far, they don't look like they will glide up the coast, to give us another heavy snowstorm but, you never know, so far ahead.
