We might see a wet Christmas down in the Valley on Friday night, as a storm rolls through Western Nevada, but it will almost certainly be windy. A colder storm is due in late Sunday.
Today will be a smidge cooler than Tuesday but sunny with a high temperature near 40 degrees. The wind will be out of the southwest 5-15 mph, shifting to the east in the afternoon.
