But i think theyre going to get this one in. There may be rain later on. Sure wish it was the nats. Waldorf looking pretty good as far as rain is concerned. We are seeing that light rain around the waldorf area down through portions of southern maryland, quantico, fredericksburg, and toward the west, as well, locust dale. This is across our region throughout the rest of the evening. Thats south of d. C. North of d. C. , a little bit of a break here. You can actually see that. That break coming north of d.

Look at the temperatures. 55 in gaithersburg. 60 in fredericksburg. 55 in winchester. So not only do we have the rain, but very dreary conditions with the cloud cover and we also have that very cool temperature, and were going to see more in the way of cool numbers as well. Here we are at future weather at 11 00. And notice the rain just coming back into the baltimore area. Most of this will be on the lighter side around 11 00. Watch what happens around the 2 00 hour. We see some heavy rain. And by early tomorrow morning, 6 00, 7 00, 8 00, the rain is really coming down in some areas. And its a fairly steady rain too. So thats going to have a big impact on what you do during your day on saturday. Saturday afternoon, were going to stay on the cold side. Were going to stay on the dreary side. But most of the rain should move out. So once again, some very good news for our afternoon on saturday. However, some of those games could be problematic. Saturday at 5 00, we may actually see some sunshine during the day too. This rain is going to have a big deal or big impact on your next 24 hours or so. Veronica johnson and i have been looking at that impact for you all week long and vj, the weekend coming right now. And so important, of course. And it is after 10 00, 11 00, you said the next wave of rain is moving back in. We expect pockets of moderate and even heavy rain as we get into the 7 00, 8 00 a. M. Hour. Take a look from the small umbrella to the big umbrella. Definitely the big one youre going to need if youre going out late tonight or early tomorrow morning. Rain heavy in spots and means not only big puddles on area roads but a very soggy ground for tomorrow morning. That rain will be ending around noontime. Temperatures, of course, low 60s but with a soggy ground if youre going to be heading out to any farms that open their doors to the octoberfest values taking place or craft festivals, its going to be wet the first part of the day.

Very similar to what we have seen across our region today. Next couple of days, we stay with the rain on saturday early. Then we see drier conditions sunday. Cant rule out a shower, but we have taken it out. We think most of the day will be dry sunday with a high of 66. 75 on monday with a 30 chance of a shower. And then we get into another tough pattern as far as the weather is concerned tuesday and potentially wednesday could be rather wet. But numbers upwards close to 80 degrees coming up on tuesday.
