THURSDAY:
Overcast, limited sunshine, some storms
Highs: 80-85
Winds: Southwest 5-10 mph
Clouds, too many or the lack of, will play a big role in Thursday’s severe weather potential. A cold front will move across the D.C. area, however, the cloudier the skies, the less likely severe storms will be. Any storm that develops, especially with added sunshine, may bring gusty winds and hail.

FRIDAY:
Partly cloudy.
Highs: 82-86
Winds: Northwest 5-10 mph
We’ll enjoy more sunshine to round out the week and kick off the long, holiday weekend. A few showers and storms could bubble up around lunchtime through the afternoon. Any cells that develop could bring a quick downpour with brightening skies afterward. Drier weather is expected for your Friday evening plans.

SATURDAY:
Scattered showers and storms
Highs: 78-83
Winds: Southeast 5-10 mph
Scattered showers and thunderstorms are likely Saturday. Although it won’t be a washout, stay weather alert for any stronger storms.

SUNDAY:
Partly sunny. Isolated thunderstorms
Highs: around 85
Winds: South 5-10 mph
Looking ahead to the long holiday weekend, shower and thunderstorm chances appear to be the lowest Sunday. Plan for warm highs in the middle 80s.
