Washington D.C. Braces for Unsettled Weather with Snow and Rain Predicted

According to the most recent projections, residents of Washington, D.C., may be in for a change in weather patterns as clouds roll in, possibly signaling the start of colder, more erratic conditions. According to the National Weather Service, today’s forecast calls for rising clouds, a high of about 51, and winds coming from the west at 7 to 11 mph with potential gusts of up to 22 mph.

Even though the winds are predicted to continue their dance from the west at a slightly slower speed of 7 to 9 mph, they could still surge up to gusts of up to 22 mph as the evening wears on. The skies are only expected to be partly cloudy, with lows of about 34 degrees.

For those who dislike wintry mixes, Friday’s forecast is not looking good. According to the National Weather Service, snow is expected to begin the day around 10 am, and it will then alternate between rain and snow until the early afternoon, when it will settle as rain. A high of 43 degrees is predicted, and although there is an 80% probability of precipitation, there won’t be much snowfall. Winds from the west will continue to blow and may increase to 26 mph gusts.

As the night progresses, the clouds are expected to part, revealing a low of about 38 mph with winds from the west blowing steadily at about 11 mph, at times gusting up to 21 mph. Any remaining showers are expected to taper off before 1 am on Friday night, with the chances of precipitation dropping to 40%. With highs in the mid-50s and lows not too far below the mid-40s, Washingtonians anticipating the weekend may anticipate generally sunny days that provide a gentle break from the previously brisk weather.

According to the National Weather Service website, Monday and Tuesday will see highs of about 60 and 59 degrees, respectively, before the temperature slightly drops in the middle of the week, hinting at a largely bright start to the next week.
