How does 50-degree weather sound for the middle of December?
We could get there -- potentially for 3 straight days next Friday, Saturday and Sunday -- but we'll have to get through a slow Monday morning commute first.
A weak cold front from the west will go through Wisconsin tonight, bringing a mixed bag of precipitation as temperatures fall just below freezing. Sleet, snow and light freezing rain are all possible, starting around midnight tonight and going through the morning hours. A few more flurries behind the system will make Monday feel wintry.
If you get up and see snow on the ground tomorrow morning, test your driveway to see if there's a layer of ice underneath. Just use a broom to sweep away an area of snow (away from the house) to see if ice lurks beneath. If you're on Twitter, follow @MadisonTraffic to see what's going on on the roads.
After Monday, the warm-up begins. Temps will slowly increase throughout the week. Currently, it looks like sun and a southerly breeze will allow highs to reach into the 50s all weekend, before a new front brings rain late Sunday. Last December, highs were 24, 23 and 20 for the second weekend of the month.
