Saturday won't see any rain, but Sunday — Christmas Eve — will. It'll be steady, and at some times heavy, starting across western Minnesota. The back end of the system will bring some snow for northwestern Minnesota, but accumulation will be limited to around an inch or two.

Temps will reach record-breaking highs, reaching the 50s in the metro.

Then on Christmas day through Tuesday, there will be another round of precipitation; mostly rain, but some snow and ice will accumulate to the north and west.

Sunshine should return by mid-week, and temps remain above average for all of next week.
