Discussion
A strong coastal storm will bring a soaking rainfall to the DC metro region late tonight and Saturday, but first we'll enjoy a nice Friday as large high pressure controls the weather around here for one more day. By tomorrow, intensifying low pressure will head towards the Mid-Atlantic coastline and the result around here will be a dreary, much cooler day to start the weekend with periods of rain, a persistent NE wind, and some of the rain can be heavy at times. Clouds will tend to hang on for Sunday and a few lingering showers are likely throughout the Mid-Atlantic region. Another disturbance will pass through the region on Monday and it could generate a shower or thundershower as we begin the new work week, but there will much rain-free time as well. By the middle of next week, temperatures should climb to the 80 degree mark for highs from DC-to-Philly-to-NYC.
