On Tuesday night, temperatures are forecast to be in the low 30s, rising into the 40s on Thursday night before dropping again into the 30s for the rest of the week.

During the day, temperatures are expected to be in the low 50s on New Year’s Day, and for the rest of the week moving into the high 50s, according to the forecast.
