Matt Ritter 7News First Alert Meteorologist

Showers from Friday night and early Saturday morning are moving out of the D.C. area, as a cold front moves slowly through the area today. Temperatures will be near average today, since the cool-down with the front won’t be immediate and won’t be very pronounced, although the air will be drying out gradually throughout the day.

Clouds will hang tough for most of the morning then start breaking up this afternoon and that will continue into the evening. A wave of low pressure will develop in the southern U.S. along the old front, and even though that will keep the next round of steady rain to our south, the area will get cloud cover back overnight and into the day Sunday.

Lack of sunshine and a northerly breeze will keep Sunday rather cool, but not too bad. High pressure will bring back sunshine for Monday and Tuesday of next week, followed by another cold front on Wednesday with a chance of showers.
