D.C.-area forecast: Cloudier today with midday showers; sunnier and dry tomorrow

A somewhat subjective assessment of the day’s weather, on a scale of 0 to 10.

6/10: After being marred by perfection on Tuesday, clouds and a few midday showers shave several points despite mild temperatures.

  • Today: Partly cloudy to mostly cloudy, midday showers/thunderstorms. Treble: 70s.
  • This evening: A few showers/storms in the evening possible. Lowest: mid to upper 50s.
  • Tomorrow: Partly sunny and warmer. Highs: Mid 70s to near 80.

Today won’t be as nice as yesterday, with clouds and a few midday showers, maybe a thunderstorm. A few additional showers and thunderstorms may occur this evening. Further showers are possible at times late Friday and through the weekend, although confidence in the forecast is quite low. Temperatures, although fluctuating over the next few days, remain generally mild ahead of a cooler Sunday.

Today (Wednesday): The most likely time for showers and possibly a thunderstorm to move from west to east is late morning through mid-afternoon. Otherwise, it is partly to partly cloudy with temperatures rising from the 50s early this morning to afternoon highs in the 70s, with light southeast winds. Confidence: average

This evening: A few more showers and thunderstorms could pass through the evening until around midnight, then skies could partially clear overnight with lows in the mid to upper 50s. Confidence: Medium

Tomorrow (Thursday): Back to partly sunny skies and trending warmer again. Highs will head into the mid 70s to near 80 with a steady midday breeze from the northwest around 10 to 15 mph. Trust: medium-high

Tomorrow evening: Clouds are increasing as our next system begins to approach from the west. Lows are expected to settle around 50 to mid 50s. Confidence: Medium-High

Mostly cloudy skies keep us a little cooler Friday with highs in the upper 60s to mid 70s. A few showers are possible Friday afternoon into late night due to a passing cold front. Lows Friday night dip into the upper 40s and lower 50s. Trust: Low-Medium

The potential of showers weekend depends on the location of a cold front. If it hangs around nearby, we’d be more likely to get showers. If it extends far enough south, our chances will be less. Models have shifted further south for the front, which could reduce our chances of showers, but there is still time for the forecast to change. Highs on Saturday are expected to be in the mid 60s to near 70, followed by cooler highs on Sunday in the upper 60s to mid 60s. Confidence: Low-Medium
