Discussion

The week starts off unsettled as a cold frontal system slowly works its way through the area and it can produce occasional showers into the early afternoon hours. High pressure will take control on Tuesday, but only for a brief time as another system can produce some shower activity around here on Tuesday night and Wednesday morning. The weather returns to generally dry and cool conditions for later Wednesday and Thursday as another high pressure system builds into the region…cool weather for the Nationals home opener.
