After a chilly start to the week with morning wind chills in the single digits and even below-zero and afternoon highs around or below average in the lower 30s, we will start to warm up. In fact, every day through Christmas looks a little warmer than the one before it. That means we slowly warm through the 40s the rest of this work week then see 50s arrive for Christmas weekend and Christmas Day is looking pretty close to 50 too.
The 6-10 day temperature trend gives Wisconsin an 80% chance for above average temps from Christmas Day through the 29th. It does look like the warmth will loosen its grip a bit as we go into the end of December but certainly through Christmas Day it looks mild!
In recent years Christmas Day temps have been all over the place! Last year was cold in the teens for highs but the year before that was mild in the upper 40s. 2020 was also a chillier Christmas but 2019 was one of the warmest on record. This year we look to be well above average with highs hovering around 50 so maybe not the warmest in too many years but certainly well above average.
