Discussion
High pressure takes control of the weather today on the back side of a departing cold frontal system and it should result in some sunshine and a breezy, milder afternoon. A weak disturbance slides to our south early tomorrow and then high pressure returns for later tomorrow and Thursday. It’ll be on the cool side on both Wednesday and Thursday and then warmer weather returns for the end of the week and upcoming weekend; however, it’ll become more unsettled as well with an increasing chance of showers. One final note…there should be plenty of sunshine on Thursday for the Nationals home opener against the Phillies and it’ll be a tad cooler-than-normal with afternoon highs in the upper 50’s.
