CLEVELAND — We are officially into a big week for travel and last minute shopping. We need some cooperation from Mother Nature. We've got it!
For Christmas week, next few days will be chilly but quiet. I cannot rule out isolated light lake effect snow on Wednesday and Thursday for our NE communities. A stronger system will move toward the area by the end of the week. However, it will not bring us a White Christmas. In fact, temperatures look to climb well above average by Christmas Eve with rain showers building in late and sticking around through Christmas morning.
