We're keeping an eye on the future computer models that are suggesting a possible downpour event to start the new year as well as cooler temperatures towards the second week of January. For now though, this is based off of the GFS computer model which is the American computer model that is more reliable when it comes to this kind of weather event. The computer models will change over time, so we'll continue to keep an eye on this as things change and progress. Stay tuned, and please share this post to help spread the word!
