SAVANNAH, Ga. — Good morning and a merry Christmas Eve Eve to all!

Today, we can expect a blend of sun and clouds with temperatures rising to the low 70s. Following yesterday’s brief cool spell, we’re set for a stretch of warmer-than-usual weather that will persist through the weekend.

As we approach Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, the weather promises to be calm but warm. Morning temperatures will hover in the 50s, while the afternoons will bask in cheerful sunshine with highs in the mid-70s. Santa may find his suit a bit toasty this year, but his sleigh ride will be peaceful and dry under the night sky.

Looking ahead, a significant change is on the horizon as a strong cold front is expected to move in late this weekend into early next week. While it may bring a few passing showers, the main story will be the cooler air that follows.

Temperatures will take a noticeable dip, with highs dropping from the upper 70s on Sunday to the 50s and 60s by Monday. Early next week, morning lows could flirt with freezing.
