D.C.-area forecast: Warming up through Friday; occasionally rainy into the

A somewhat subjective rating of the day’s weather, on a scale of 0 to 10.

6/10: We can start to shed the winter gear, as temperatures climb above normal for this time of year. Meanwhile the snow melts away, with just a few light showers during the day.

  • Today: Mostly cloudy, a few light showers. Highs: Upper 40s to mid-50s.
  • Tonight: Scattered light showers, patchy fog. Lows: Upper 40s to near 50.
  • Tomorrow: Periods of rain likely. Highs: Mid-50s to low 60s.

What snow is left will soon be gone. Our warming trend is underway with most spots reaching the mid-40s yesterday, headed for near or past 50 today, and into the 60s by Friday before a cooler weekend. Rain chances return starting today, although we may only see a few light showers, before periods of rain move through tomorrow. We should get a break with a mostly dry Friday, then rain chances rise again this weekend.

Today (Wednesday): A few light showers are possible, although much of the day should be dry. After morning temperatures rise through the 30s, afternoon highs should warm to the upper 40s to mid-50s with mostly cloudy skies and light winds. Confidence: Medium-High

Tonight: Scattered light showers are possible this evening and overnight with patchy fog. Temperatures hover in the upper 40s to near 50 with cloudy skies as a breeze develops from the south. Confidence: Medium

Tomorrow (Thursday): Periods of rain seem likely, probably starting early in the morning with more patchy fog possible. Some spots could see a half-inch or so, but lower and higher amounts are certainly in play. The air mass continues to warm despite the rain and cloudy skies, with afternoon highs in the mid-50s to low 60s. Confidence: Medium

Tomorrow night: Occasional light showers linger as we stay mild with temperatures mainly in the 50s. Confidence: Medium

Can’t rule out a morning shower Friday, but overall the forecast is trending toward a mostly dry and perhaps even partly sunny day. Temperatures continue their steady climb with very mild highs in the 60s, or about 20 degrees above normal. Should stay dry Friday night as lows drop back into the 40s. Confidence: Medium

The weekend brings another storm and the potential for more periods of rain. Right now the most likely time for rain looks to be late Saturday afternoon into Sunday. Highs on Saturday should get to near 50, then cooler on Sunday with highs in the 40s. Confidence: Low-Medium
