thirty-one allah even town. thirty-four in the city. 35 degrees in wilmington. factor in the wind and it feels like it is in the 20's just about every where. 8 miles an hour wind in the city. we had been going on a nice, mild, trend for christmas eve it was 64 degrees. early in the morning we had 65 degrees high yesterday and then temperatures dropped as the sun came out in the afternoon and wind picked up. so we will settle in at 52 degrees today and that is 10 degrees colder. i'm sorry, warmer then the average temperature for this late december time. 55 degrees tomorrow, very nice day, scattered showers as we said around on sunday and then we will get that cold trend and in answer to your question chris murphy, monday morning, it looks like actually we do have a chance of a bit of a mix of precipitation before that cold front exits. then maybe a chance of flurries new year eve with that high of 35 degrees. look at new years day. daytime high is 38 degrees. when that mummers parade gets started in the morning it will be colder then that. burr. >> make sure you
