Lets keep this weather going. Thank you, will. I mean you got that right hes right. It has been absolutely gorgeous. And tonight not as cool as last night. Weve got clouds coming in and some mornings have been chilly where you dont want to head out without a jacket. Well head to 50s. Thats warmer than it has been. Its off to a good start friday. One other change about our friday im not thinking its going to be quite as sunny. Well have clouds tonight and well probably end up with a mix of clouds and sun and heavier on the clouds. Especially if you live east of the district. So well start off with the major things you need to know. Clouds on the increase overnight and you will notice them around tomorrow morning. They may thin a little bit in the afternoon tomorrow. And because of the clouds i think it will hold our temperatures down a little bit. Probably three or four degrees cooler than today. Farther west you go better chance you have of breaking out into sunshine. We have been talking about the possibility of a coastal tomorrow developing. That storm will develop but will stay fafr enough away from the coast that were not going to have affect here in the district stay far enough away. The weekend right now looking pretty nice although we will keep a few clouds around from time to time. Here are the next three days a lot of clouds for friday. Mostly cloudy well say. 74 degrees. Definitely bright spots and not a bad day at all. Saturday clouds and were keeping the temperature right around 74 degrees both days. A little brighter sunday with a temperature of 75. A frontal boundary will be approaching from the west. I think it swings through on monday. It comes through dry. Meanwhile our temperature is 65 degrees at 11 00. Such a pleasant night. So many nights this week. When weve been looking at the temperatures around the region at 11 00 weve been finding a lot of places in the 40s. That is not the case tonight. I think for the most part well stay in the 50s to 60 or 61 degrees here downtown. Perhaps winchester in martinsburg youre going to get to upper 40s to near 50 degrees. Most of us notice how the temperatures are warmer because of cloud cover that were expecting to see in the region. First batch of cloudiness and storm system has moved off the coast but this may become a bigger system over the next few days and it will be sitting and spinning out there perhaps throwing a few clouds toward the outer banks of North Carolina but i think were off the hook for that thing. For tonight 60 degrees winds out of the east. Well build up a maritime flow and cloud deck from 95 on east. Temperatures in the 50s and suburbs. Tomorrow not a bad finish to our workweek. A bit more cloud cover around and as a result temperatures holding down a little bit especially with the wind out of the eastnortheast. Annapolis how about 70 degrees friday. 74 for leonardtown. Quantico. Perhaps with more sunshine out west your temperatures could warmup just a little bit. The weekend sin narrow with that coastal low offshore scenario allows High Pressure to be in control but that will keep our temperatures rather comfortable and maybe a few degrees below average for this time of year.
