New Year’s Eve is a fun and festive night, full of music, parades and of course, the countdown to midnight and special kiss.
But don’t pop the champagne yet.
The Farmers’ Almanac weather forecast is in and it’s looking a bit soggy for some regions across the country.
Here’s the weather forecast for Wednesday, Dec. 28-Saturday, Dec. 31:
Zone 1 - New York, Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland and Washington D.C.
This region will be seeing snow turn into rain as midnight approaches.
Zone 2 - Ohio, Michigan, Indiana, Kentucky, Illinois and Wisconsin
Rain and snow will mix as these states enter the New Year.
