Washington faces showers and low visibility Tuesday, with a soaking stretch now set to dominate the next two days. Rain showers are likely through the day, northeast winds could gust to 24 mph, and the high may barely reach 63.
Rain And Wind Stick Around Tuesday
Showers are likely through Tuesday, with low ceilings and reduced visibility possible. Rainfall is expected Tuesday as part of a broader 1- to 2-inch total across much of the region from Monday night through Wednesday.
The damp weather comes with low ceilings and reduced visibility. The National Weather Service says northeast winds will gust approximately 15 to 30 mph, making conditions feel cooler.
Wet Tuesday Night And Another Cool Wednesday
Tuesday night stays wet, with precipitation continuing. Wednesday brings another round of likely showers, a high near 64 and northeast gusts up to 24 mph, although rain should begin easing from northeast to southwest during the afternoon.
The latest outlook sharpens the prolonged wet pattern described in Hoodline's Monday forecast, with the weather service now projecting roughly 1 to 2 inches of rain across much of the region by the time Wednesday ends.
Thursday Starts A Brighter Turn
Thursday finally brings a drier break, with mostly cloudy skies and highs in the 60s. Friday should see greater chances for reduced cloud cover, followed by a gradual warming trend.
Tidal Water Could Run High
Persistent northeast winds may also push water levels higher along parts of the Tidal Potomac and other waterfront areas. The forecast discussion says minor flooding is likely with some tide cycles beginning Tuesday night and potentially continuing through Thursday, even though no watches, warnings or advisories are listed for the District itself.
