Slight Warm-Up on Sunday

Temperatures will start in the mid-30s then work their way up into the low-50s. A cold front will be passing by mid-day, which will cause a northern shift in wind direction. This shift will draw in colder temperatures Sunday evening. The low-temperatures will range into the low-40s to high-30s. Expect rain throughout the day tomorrow.

Washington’s Birthday is Looking to be Seasonable

The start of the school/work week will be seasonable. Temperatures will be in the mid-40s with partly cloudy skies. We’ll get a chance to recuperate from all the rain we’ve been getting.

The temperatures will drop into the low-30s, so make sure to have that heavier jacket handy on Monday night.

Bringing Back the Rain on Tuesday

Tuesday morning will start out dry. As temperatures rise into the 40s, the precipitation chances will remain. Tuesday will have some rain here and there, while temperatures are expected to decrease into the high-30s by Tuesday evening.
