The Israeli-Hamas war has already driven around 85% of Gaza’s 2.3 million people from their homes, leveling the northern part of the territory and heightening fears about a similar fate for the south as Israel’s air and ground offensive widened Friday.Tens of thousands of displaced Palestinians have streamed into the town of Rafah in the southernmost end of Gaza in recent days, according to the United Nations, crowding into an already overwhelmed area of the embattled territory.More than 20,000 Palestinians, two-thirds of them women and children, have been killed since the start of the war, according to the Health Ministry in Hamas-run Gaza, which doesn’t differentiate between civilians and combatants among the dead.

It appears clouds may not break until Friday night and that Saturday will be dry with some sun giving way to clouds with a new disturbance approaching from the northwest later in the day.That disturbance may produce some light snow on Sunday and New Year's Eve and night. Current thinking is any accumulation will be minor—but if there is ANY sticking of snow possible on New Year's Eve we'll continue monitoring it.
