Discussion              

It’ll stay quite mild again today, but rain is on the way for the mid-day and afternoon hours and it’ll continue into the evening as low pressure pushes by to our northwest. The warmest day of the week is coming on Wednesday ahead of the next cold front with temperatures likely to reach 70 degrees during the afternoon. Following the passage of the cold front, temperatures will tumble on Thursday and this could lead to some ice and/or snow in the DC metro region before an eventual changeover to plain rain on Friday.
