Skies will be partly to mostly sunny this morning as the arrival of an upper-level trough improves atmospheric moisture across the region. Afternoon temperatures will reach the mid to upper 70s, dew points in the mid 30s, and precipitable water (PWAT) vales up to 0.50”. These conditions will support isolated showers and thunderstorms capable of producing light rainfall during the afternoon and evening. Storm motions will be from the west-southwest to east-northeast around 15-20 mph. Skies will gradually clear overnight with dry conditions expected tomorrow morning. |
WORST CASE SCENARIO: A strong thunderstorm, or training of thunderstorms, may be capable of producing up to 0.20” of rainfall in up to 30 minutes.
A LOOK AHEAD: Sunday morning will be sunny with seasonal temperatures prevailing across the District. Gusty downslope conditions will limit storm development across the region, resulting in dry conditions throughout the day and overnight into Monday.
