Some Sunday showers expected in the DC area

The weekend will close out a bit cloudier than it started. Expect rain, especially east of I-95, Sunday as a coastal storm makes its way into the area. “Sunday we have a chance for showers, mainly along I-95 and east. Not a ton of rain but enough to impact your Sunday afternoon and evening,” StormTeam 4 meteorologist Samara Theodore said.

  • Expect showers east of D.C., though heavy rain is not in the forecast
  • Sunday’s highs will be in the mid-60s


Showers will leave by Monday. Take solace in knowing the sunny skies that were here on Saturday will make a return Monday with highs in the low 70s.

FORECAST
