Discussion
Colder air moved into the region late Monday and today will turn out to be a brisk and somewhat colder-than-normal day in the DC metro region. After a clear and cold night, clouds will increase here tomorrow and then it'll turn even milder on Thursday with a shower threat by nightfall. Showers are likely on Friday just ahead of a cold frontal passage with temperatures likely well up in the 60's and an isolated thunderstorm is on the table. The weekend looks dry from this vantage point, but it’ll turn colder following the late week passage of a cold frontal system.
