Showers and Storms Roll In Fashionably Late Today/Tonight

Posted on
Cooler this morning than yesterday morning in Western PA but warmer in DC. Nice weather holds on for much of today before a chance of showers and storms moves into western PA during the late afternoon and into DC during the evening/overnight hours. Some of these storms could bring heavy rains and be severe. The risk of rain will persist into Thursday, especially early in the day, before clearing out into Friday. Most of the weekend looks fantastic before a chance of showers and storms moves in Sunday afternoon/evening. Highs in the 70s and 80s will remain pretty constant throughout the region into the weekend. Have a great hump day folks! Get over it!
