Monroe Residents: Here's Your New Year's Eve, New Year's Day Forecast

As you get ready to celebrate the end of 2014, and the beginning of 2015 we’ll let you know whether the weather forecast plans to cooperate with your party plans.

There is both good and bad news with the latest forecast for our area from the National Weather Service.

First, the good news. Beginning Monday, and running through New Year’s Day there is currently no chance of precipitation for that time period. So you won’t have to deal with snow or rain on New Year’s Eve or New Year’s Day.

Now for the bad news, it’s finally going to begin to feel like winter just in time for New Year’s Eve. The low temperature for the last night of 2014 calls for temperatures in the high teens to about 20 degrees.

On New Year’s Day, it will be mostly sunny with a high near 34.

And one more piece of potential bad news depending on your view of wintry precipitation. The National Weather Service is predicting a chance of snow and sleet Friday night, and a chance of snow and rain on Saturday.

No matter what you do on New Year’s Eve or New Year’s Day please be safe, and enjoy the holiday with friends and family.
