New Year’s Day will be mostly sunny, with a high near 55. Winds will be light.
Wednesday night should be mostly clear,with a low around 39. Light winds will become northwest at 5 to 7 mph in the evening.
Thursday will be sunny, with a high near 59.
Steele said there is a chanced the valley could hit 60 degrees on Sunday. No precipitation is forecast through next week.
