A cold front moves through the D.C. region Sunday morning, bringing a few spotty showers before noon because of limited moisture. Temperatures vary widely, with 40s across the northern suburbs and readings near 60 in the south before colder and windier conditions take over in the afternoon. Most of the D.C. area will fall below freezing overnight.
Light snow may develop Monday afternoon as a system passes well to the south, but temperatures should stay warm enough to prevent travel issues. A mix of snow and freezing rain Monday night could lead to icy roads Tuesday morning, before the region warms enough for plain rain in the afternoon.
A mild but unsettled stretch arrives Wednesday through Friday.
