In spite of the warmth and cheer Santa Claus will bring, thermometers will drop Christmas Day in Pasadena where the high is predicted to be only 63 degrees, but under sunny skies, the National Weather Service says.
Nighttime temps will plunge into the upper thirties, other experts say.
Throughout the rest of the week and the weekend, temperatures will continue to hover just above 60 with about 21 degree drops each night. Days will be sunny (cloudy on Sunday).
Friday is expected to be Breezy, with a northeast wind 15 to 20 mph decreasing to 10 to 15 mph in the morning. Winds could gust as high as 30 mph.
The weather will remain dry, with nary a cloud in sight into next week. With the Rose Parade coming next Thursday, odds remain high that next week’s weather will be pretty good.
