Cold air is making a comeback around Washington, D.C., for Christmas after 70-degree weather from this past weekend.
After a rain and snow shower passed through on Christmas Eve, dry weather and some sunshine will return for Christmas Day.
Temperatures on Christmas will be nearly 40 degrees lower when compared to over the weekend. The high Wednesday is forecast to be in the mid-30s, but will start the day in the upper 20s.
Dry weather is forecast around the region from Christmas Day through Sunday. There is a slight chance of snow around New Year's Eve.
Temperatures will rebound over the weekend before more arctic air returns early next week.
The warmth this past weekend has erased temperature departures of several degrees below normal for December. As a result, December is likely to finish above the normal mean temperature of 41 degrees.
