Meteorologist Ethan Rosuck is tracking a wet Christmas for Central Indiana. Then, we turn even warmer with highs approaching 60° by the weekend.

Mild weather on Christmas Day will bring very few chances of snow across the country. The best spots for a white Christmas with fresh snow will be across the Rocky Mountains. Rain is expected to continue in portions of the South, while the West will get a brief reprieve during the day before another atmospheric river streams inland.

NEW ORLEANS (WVUE) - Rain chances are increasing for Christmas as we kick off a warm and active weather pattern. A few showers and storms are likely tomorrow. The main threat will be a few brief heavy downpours. Severe weather is not expected. Most rain will move out by the evening with only a few lingering showers.

Rain showers, gusty winds, and even a few embedded thunderstorms are present Tuesday morning and as the storm heads east, expect snow levels to plummet in the Sierra.
