winchester, good morning to you at 59 degrees. here is a look at the future cast. you can see we're going to stay dry for most of the day. this evening though, winchester, martinsburg along 81, the showers and thunderstorms come in. slight chance for the storms to be severe along 81 and west of it. for d.c., we could see some thunderstorms late tonight and overnight. but we're not worried about them being severe. some more showers through tomorrow morning. could be a wet commute for tomorrow morning. but then after that, the cold front comes through. we'll clear out to partly sunny conditions by around 5:00. but boy, does it really cool down. we also have a coastal flooding advisory in effect until 10:00 tonight. this basically means we're expecting waves one to two feet above normal. our main concern is just a minor flooding of low-lying areas. that is until 10:00 p.m. tonight, the areas in the light green. for today though, partly cloudy. breezy and warmer. thunderstorms possible. better chance to the western suburbs for this afternoon. highs 80 to 85 degrees. so

there's not much showing up, but a little cluster of storms knot of winchester. not a lot there, but watch to your northwest. a spotty to isolated shower is in the forecast for you tonight. i don't think these are going to have good luck making these across the interstate. temperature wise, get ready for a warm one. average is 71. we were 77 degrees today. headed for 82 degrees tomorrow. and a little bit of an uptick in humidity, which will provide an unstable atmosphere. 62 degrees on wednesday. obviously, it's a front that's got a little punch to it. it's going to drop temperatures by 20 degrees. still on the coolish side on thursday. close to average. friday a temperature of about 70 degrees. but we are going to focus on the temperature today. 77 degrees. dew points were in the low 60s. not humid, but it's noticeable when it's out there. tomorrow will be the same deal. you can see what i'm talking about with this in motion. there's not a lot to watch. it's a line through pennsylvania. but lots more to come. this is what will be in our area tomorrow night. most

it includes the west virginia pan handle and for us a touch of frost in winchester. decreasing clouds overnight, you might have the quick shower in the northern suburbs, 40s after the clouds decrease and in the district dropping to 46 degrees. tomorrow, the breeze is back with us but it should be a beautiful sunny day. manassas to 70, dc 68 and fredricksburg 62, and frederick, 67 degrees so a nice looking day. a little warmer than today was. the next three days, up to 63 degrees tomorrow, friday 70, and saturday, 71 degrees, and again keeping saturday dry for now but there could be a shower that pops up in the forecast period. so dry for now for saturday. mother's day, couple of showers around at 73, and monday, mostly cloudy at 74 degrees. so that's it for weather and that's it for the caps too. feldy is coming back with your highlights. ou >> good evening, i'm dave feldman. it was not supposed to happen this way. the caps were supposed to play into june. we were even checking our passports in case we had to go into vancouver. late first period, caps down 1-0 on a p

. >>> temperatures statewide cooler north and best. 39 at deep creek lake. 50s hagerstown york and winchester. in fact we've got 57 in easton and 56 in ocean city right now. warmer early this morning as temperature pushed up close to 70. but for the afternoon hours things just kept getting cooler and cooler. that's what we're going to see out there as the evening wears onstedly dropping through the 50s. most of the active weather well to our south and west. this cluster of showers in west virginia diving south and west. i don't think we're going to see a lot around here other than stray showers here or there. and on the whole we look for improving weather to come in with an area of high pressure settling from west to east. going to take a while for that to happen. we'll stay cloudy tonight. it will feel a little damp out there certainly chilly but as this area moves further east and pushes the last of this system out to sea we look for better weather to continue to arrive into our cinco de mayo thursday. you see that cloudy tonight hit or miss shower maybe but most of us looking dry and sunny

especially in the south and alabama. 1/2 inche of rain in winchester. loudon county high school, 1/4 inch of rain. temperatures out to our west -- into the 50's and 60's. dierrier air. you can see thsis line, moving up in to frederick county. some of the moderate showers are in parts of new york state. there are a few thundershowers down into tennessee and alabama. the folks do not need any more in the way of rain, but at least it is quieter weather. overnight tonight, there are those showers. as you go to the nighttime hours, there will be more into the morning hours. it will be damp, chilly, lingering rainshowers. by the time we get to noon time, all of this moves through and we will see some clouds, but those will break out too. temperatures tomorrow only into the 50's. temperatures in the low 50's. yhes you'll need umbrellas but no severe weather. temperatures tomorrow afternoon only 60 degrees. cooler than average. some sunshine back as we get into thursday. the pattern we have no will feature quieter weather and some weather fronts coming through

with mid-50s to hagerstown and winchester. mid-40s in garrett county while still still 60. you'll probably dip into the upper 40s in columbia for your low. 63 for leesburg and reston and fairfax at 60. crofton this evening 57 degrees. reagan national cloudy skies. just a little bit of a chill out there. jet stream. coming onshore on the west coast. a little rise there in the northern plains then here is that northwesterly flow. tracked to our south and west and i think that will be the case for the overnight batch of showers and tomorrow we will have to watch to see what pops up here. here we go in the morning. a few sprinkles there. 9:15. we are okay. then in the afternoon a couple more showers do start to pop up. your next few day break down. 70 degrees. really nice monday and tuesday. where in the low 70s. make it mid-70s by thursday with a slight chance of a shower then unfortunately friday and saturday looks like the shower thunderstorm chance increases. temperatures still comfy in the low 70s. >>> terps seem to know what they want, right? >> they know what they want.

no warnings just yet, but winchester get ready. some heavy rain and perhaps strong, gusty winds. look at the temperature. 79 downtown. 79 in gaithersburg. 81 in leesburg. 82 in fredericksburg. it was getting cooler to the west. 52 right now in oakland. so the outside story, thunderstorms are possible in the metro area until about midnight and then the cool air comes in and squashes them. some could be heavy. some could be severe. the greater threat by far and away west of town look for a wet commute tomorrow morning. nothing severe, but it's going to be wet and much cooler on wednesday. here's a look at our future cast. a little bit after midnight, we're going to see rain and showers from gaithersburg down to the district and also over toward baltimore. that's the yellow indicating moderate rain. by 9:30 in the morning. we see rain beginning to work its way from west to east. with the rain, out of here by lunchtime. in fact, we'll see return to partly cloudy skies by afternoon. you'll remain breezy and still remain rather cool with temperatures struggling to get to 60 and maybe a

winchester is at 59 dealings out that way. here is a look at the satellite- radar composite. we have clouds out there again this morning. also some areas of some light fog being reported early this morning so there is some moisture in the atmosphere but nothing in the way of any rain showers. nor do we expect to see any until late today as this frontal boundary, which is pretty much stalled out for now begins to make its way eastward. this will move eastward as a cold front. along this front, a series of impulses are moving creating precipitation. there have been some thunderstorms with this and with the daytime heating we expect to get today, this will set us up for the possible of some thunderstorms. some could be strong to severe to the west of the district. forecast for today looks like this. it will be a mix of clouds and sun. partly sunny skies, warm breezy, high about 84 degrees. we have a coastal flood advisory in effect as well because of the winds kind of pushing those waters up the chesapeake bay. now, for tonight, here what is we're look at. showers, thunderstorms

the line coming down earlier and nothing severe here and there is that cell to the north and west of winchester and that is where everything is now and most of this is confined to the nowhere and western counties the next few hours and about 9:00 or so, there is a chance of it dragging to the areas and there is that outside chance of thunderstorms and that is late this evening after midnight and there is that thunderstorm watch for our -- severe thunderstorm watch for northwestern counties and that is primarily washington county and into i-81 and we're tracking this and haven't seen the weather watches and warnings popping up there and at least for right now, all clear. this is the evening's forecast. show you what we're thinking. northwestern storms at 7:00 and that is partly cloudy here. still mild, 77 degrees and by 9:00, we'll bring in a chance of showers and a couple of thunderstorms and there is that chance that a thunderstorm might be strong and winds are gusty, 10 to 20 miles an hour. 80 degrees in the city, 81 for gaithersburg and to the northwest and frederick right now, 82 and there

winchester is 70 degrees. and fredericksberg were in the 50s this morning and now 70 as well. so we'll warm up quickly by late morning, upper 70s, and a few of us will touch 80. and off to the low to mid-80s this afternoon. going to feel summery around here n. addition to warm temperatures, southerly breeze and as mentioned the dew point temperature is on the rise so the humidity will start to feel that around here later today. no rain showers or thunderstorm activity at this hour. but later today, i think late this afternoon and tonight, best chance for some widely scattered showers and thunderstorm activity. just clouds here with a little sunshine mixed in for the first part of the day. and then here is your cold front. and most of the activity will hold offing in the evening hours. out to the west, into west virginia and maryland, upner cumberland, you'll get it first later this afternoon. but for the rest of us it is the evening hours before this moves in. and then behind this, much cooler and drier air starts to filter in and our high temperatures after being in the 80s t
