- | Westerly upper-level flow aloft has produced a mountain wave cloud this morning which will help limit high temperatures this afternoon in the 80's over the plains with 70's along the foothills. |
- | A weak disturbance will move in around midday with clouds increasing behind resulting in a chance for scattered rain showers/isolated thunderstorms this afternoon, with rain chances possible until sunset this evening. Best chance for storms will be from 2-8pm with relatively quick storm motions 10-15mph which will help limit point rainfall amounts across the District. |
- | Skies will begin to clear after sunset as overnight lows drop into the mid to upper 50's for the plains with upper 40's to around 50 for the foothills. |
WORST CASE SCENARIO: A strong thunderstorm is able to develop along a gust front/outflow boundary with the potential to produce 0.2-0.5" in 10-30 minutes.
A LOOK AHEAD: Cooler temperatures over the next couple of days in the upper 70's to low 80's. A chance for rain showers/isolated thunderstorms possible both Monday and Tuesday afternoon/early evening, although the threat for heavy rain in the District is minimal at this time.
