WASHINGTON — Taylor Swift is coming to D.C., but will the weather hold?
The pop star’s two-night performance at Nationals Park may be upstaged by thunderstorms. The chance for bad weather Monday night is relatively low — scattered showers may make things wet for concertgoers. But the greatest weather threat will come Tuesday night with gusty winds, heavy rain and thunderstorms.
Fans can bring collapsible umbrellas and ponchos. Prohibited items include selfie sticks, beach balls, backpacks and large signs.
Following the concerts, Metro is adding one extra hour of late-night service from the Navy Yard station.
The last Green Line train will leave at 12:39 a.m. The last connecting train will leave at 12:20 a.m.
The additional service is funded by the concert promoter.
Doors open at 5 p.m., which means drivers should avoid the area around Nationals Park during the afternoon rush hour.
Police say vehicles will not be allowed to drop off or pick up anyone on the busy streets surrounding the stadium, especially South Capitol Street.
The shows start at 7 p.m. Monday and Tuesday.
