Through Tonight: Numerous showers and storms to our southwest will move into the area this evening. By sunset or so, it will cross into the immediate area, then continue through and potentially beyond midnight. The best odds of substantial rainfall are generally in D.C. and to the south, with places farther north potentially seeing little to nothing. If it turns into steadier showers and storms, about a quarter- to a half-inch is likely. If storms stall or repeatedly pass, a few locations could see one to two inches or more. That could lead to isolated flooding if it occurs. Low to mid-60s should do it for lows.

Tomorrow (Tuesday): Most or all of the overnight rain should be out of here. Some early fog and drizzle will probably break fairly quickly. Occasional showers remain possible, though they will be mainly light and more miss than hit. We should see partial sunshine by afternoon, which will help boost afternoon temperatures to around 80.

Another cool weekend ahead? Temperatures are set to attempt a run at 90 again Wednesday as a little heat spike passes the region. By the weekend, we could be back to cool and potentially damp conditions. A dip in the jet stream is forecast to hang out over the Northeast for several days, eventually going by on Sunday.
