Discussion
A cold frontal system will push through the region this morning and there will be plenty of clouds associated with it and an isolated shower or two across some of the northern suburbs. It’ll be on the breezy and cool side today with temperatures slightly below-normal for this time of year. The weather looks quite nice on Thursday for the Nationals home opener against the Phillies featuring plenty of sunshine and highs near the 60-degree mark. A warm front passes through the area on Friday night and it can result in some shower activity around here. Then a major league warm-up is likely this weekend with temperatures potentially soaring to the 80-degree mark on Saturday and well up into the 70’s on Sunday.
