A warm front passed by Thursday morning as expected, giving the D.C. area a windy, unseasonably warm afternoon. A cold front associated with the overall weather system will start moving through the area Thursday evening. There is just enough energy and atmospheric moisture for an isolated shower as the front moves through, especially in the northern suburbs, but most of the area will stay dry. A wind advisory for the I-81 corridor will remain in effect until 6 a.m. Friday, with occasional gusts over 40 mph. Behind the front, temperatures will start dropping significantly but gradually through the overnight hours heading into Friday, and we’ll end up as cool as we were this morning. However, with gusty northwest winds behind the front, temperatures will only rebound about 10 to 15 degrees higher, making Friday much cooler than Thursday, although still technically above average. The next chance for needed rain won’t be until Monday and Wednesday of next week.

THURSDAY EVENING: Increasing clouds, Windy and mild. A stray shower is possible. Temperatures slowly falling into the 50s.
