Christmas Greetings From Matt's Weather Rapport

As she has for decades, the unbeatable Darlene Love
is helping me wish you a wonder, super Merry
Christmas. Hope you're with the people you love! 
This post won't have any weather or climate news in it.  It's my way of saying Merry Christmas.  

One of my Christmas traditions is to post Darlene Love's annual performance of my favorite  holiday song, "Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)."  

Every Christmas season since way back in 1986 when she first did this on the Late Show With David Letterman, I've sought  this Darlene Love magic out, as it's always somewhere on TV.  . 

After Letterman closed up shop, Love did her magic for a few years on "The View."  Something about when Love was on "The View" wasn't quite as spectacular, but still well worth it. 

This year, Jimmy Fallon got her on the Tonight Show, and the whole performance was made even more spectacular with the help of Little Steven & The Disciples of Soul, along with Paul Shaffer

Darlene Love, 83, is back in all her glory and voice. It's nice to have a great constant at Christmas like that beautiful singer. She hasn't faded a bit. 

I hope your baby or whoever is important in your life has come home to be with you.  I hope you have a glorious Christmas, full of fun and joy and love and gratitude. And free of crappy weather, of course!
