SAN MATEO COUNTY, CA — If you're planning to celebrate Christmas on the Peninsula this week, it appears it'll be a dry and cool one — despite the showers on Monday. While isolated thunderstorms were forecast to hit the Bay Area through Christmas Eve, the storm is expected to roll out by Tuesday.
"Gusty winds area will develop behind the cold front later Monday and Monday night," the National Weather Service said in its forecast discussion. "Christmas Day is forecast to be dry and seasonably cool, with brisk winds. Dry, cool, and breezy conditions are forecast to persist for the remainder of the week, and probably into next weekend, too."
