Weather Authority: Mild holiday weekend with showers on Christmas

Forecasters expect temperatures to stay mild over the holiday weekend with rounds of rain on Christmas Day that will start sporadic and become more widespread during the day. 

Santa Claus should keep an umbrella handy because spotty overnight rain showers will dot parts of the Delaware Valley around midnight Christmas Eve. 

Even though we'll have some showers on your Christmas Day, it's not a washout.  We get most of the showers in the morning and around dinnertime.  

In the middle of the day, it's actually pretty dry.  We just stand to see a quick, lone shower around lunchtime and early in the afternoon.

So, you'll have little to no rain if you go to the reenactment of Washington crossing the Delaware in Bucks County at Washington Crossing Historic Park.  The event takes place from 12-3 p.m. and the reenactment happens at 1 p.m. The event is free.

Saturday night is dry after 10 p.m.

Temperatures will stay around 50 degrees with sunshine on Sunday for the Eagles' matchup against the New York Giants.
