Mild in the East and Cool in the West for the Rest of the Year...

Models continue to indicate that mild weather will be the rule for the rest of 2015.  Brief shots of cold air will be replaced by mild air across the Great Lakes and the Northeast.  Showers and mild weather are expected on Christmas Eve with a dry, mild day for Christmas in the Northeast.  No major change to this pattern is expected for the remainder of the year with cooler weather in the West and mild weather in the East.
