Unseasonably warm temperatures, low relative humidity, and strong and gusty southerly wind combined with drought-stricken, dormant vegetation to promote the rapid spread of a number of wildfires across eastern Oklahoma on the 30th and 31st. The largest wildfires occurred in Choctaw and Pushmataha Counties, where over 300 acres were burned. A wildfire also consumed over 150 acres in Adair County.

Very light freezing drizzle fell across southeast North Dakota and west central Minnesota during the early morning hours of the 25th, producing slick roads in spots. As a strong low pressure system moved out of Colorado and tracked to the north-northeast, temperatures rose from just below freezing to just above freezing across southeast North Dakota and west central and northwest Minnesota. This resulted in periods of rain, freezing rain, and/or sleet for these areas through the afternoon of the 25th into the early morning hours of the 26th. The surface low eventually tracked right over the Fargo-Moorhead area around sunrise on the morning of December 26th. This kept early morning temperatures on the 26th in the lower 30s over southeast North Dakota into west central Minnesota, while northwest of the surface low, the temperature at Devils Lake on the morning of the 26th was about 20 degrees colder. Significant accumulations of ice occurred over southeast North Dakota and west central Minnesota, with tree damage and numerous power outages. Meanwhile, heavy amounts of snow fell across the Devils Lake region into the northern Red River Valley, where there were reports of 12 to 18 inches of snow. Less snow fell across northwest Minnesota, but it combined with freezing rain and sleet. As the surface low tracked into north central Minnesota during the late morning of the 26th, northwest winds strengthened and gusted up to 50 mph. This resulted in blizzard conditions across the Devils Lake and Red River Valley regions. Interstate 94 was closed in North Dakota, Interstate 29 was closed from Grand Forks to the Canadian border, and U. S. Highway 2 was closed from Grand Forks to Minot. Many schools and airports closed during the storm.

Thunderstorms intensified along and ahead of a strong cold front as it moved across the Lower Ohio Valley and southeast Missouri during the afternoon. The  strongest storms acquired supercellular characteristics, resulting in a couple of funnel clouds and isolated large hail. Breaks in the clouds during the afternoon allowed enough sunshine to warm temperatures into the lower 70's. Along with surface heating, increasing dew points contributed to weak instability. Very strong winds aloft supported storm rotation, especially in the mid levels of the storms. As the front passed, the storms morphed into a large and slow-moving area of heavy rain. Rainfall totals in this area of heavy rain surpassed three inches in spots, resulting in local flooding.

An strong surface arctic cold front worked south across the Panhandles starting around 00Z on the 17th across the OK Panhandle moving slowly south until exiting the TX Panhandle around 12Z on the 17th. Behind the passing cold front, 850-700 hPa temperature gradient was quite steep and as a result, temperatures dropped throughout the day on the 17th with gusty northerly winds as the steep gradient worked south of the region with a strong 1030+ hPa High pressure system working south from the high Plains and was over portions of NW Oklahoma by the morning of the 18th. This allowed winds to subside and air temperatures to drop below zero across most of the Panhandles with many areas experiencing wind chills at -15F or below during the morning of the 18th.

Extreme (D3) drought conditions continued across much of Northcentral Louisiana to start December, before widespread rainfall of two to in excess of four inches fell across much of this area during the first week of the month. This needed rainfall resulted in drought conditions markedly improving to moderate (D1) by the third week of December, with additional light to moderate rainfall amounts falling during the final 10 days of the month enough to maintain moderate drought conditions.
