Washington D.C. Braces for Rainy Afternoon with Foggy Night Ahead, Weekend Promises Sunshine

The skies over Washington D.C. have taken on a grey palette today, as the city prepares for a rainy afternoon followed by more rain in the evening. According to the

National Weather Service

, there’s a 70% chance of rain starting after 4 p.m., with an expected high of 53 degrees. This evening, those chances increase to 90%, and residents can expect new precipitation amounts between a quarter and half an inch possible before the rain tapers off around 4 a.m. Friday.

Commuters should be cautious of patchy fog developing after 10 p.m. tonight, potentially impacting visibility. The NWS predicts the fog to linger into the early morning hours of Friday between 8 a.m. and 9 a.m. Following the murky start, Friday is set to clear quickly up, with temperatures reaching a high near 56. The northeast wind, blowing at around 6 to 8 mph tonight, is expected to shift to the north tomorrow, occasionally gusting as high as 20 mph.

The weekend forecast suggests a respite from the dreariness. Saturday welcomes sunny skies with a high near 62, and this trend of clear weather is poised to continue into Sunday, with temperatures forecasted to climb to 64 degrees. Looking forward into the next week, the

NWS

anticipates a stretch of mostly sunny days with highs hovering in the mid to upper 60s.

As the new week begins, weather conditions appear promising. Monday offers mostly sunny skies with a high near 69 degrees, followed by an equally pleasant Tuesday. The NWS, however, does forewarn of a possible change come Wednesday, as there’s a 30% chance of showers to potentially interrupt the stretch of good weather.
