Clouds will hang tough as we had through the overnight. Showers will gradually diminish later this evening as well as the winds. This will likely allow for some fog to develop across the state for the overnight hours. Lowe’s will fall to the mid 30s.

Any rain opportunities will likely come late Tuesday night and then carry over into Christmas Day.

We’ll have to watch for the potential of a little bit of freezing drizzle in far northern counties of Indiana late Tuesday night and very early Wednesday morning. We will quickly change things over to all rain as we. Into the daybreak hours of the holiday.

High temperatures will top out into the mid-40s for Christmas Day.

Extended forecast:

Very mild temperatures for late week with highs returning to the low 50s Thursday and middle 50s on Friday.
