The golden hour at Georgetown’s Washington Harbour on Feb. 15, 2017. (chasingmailboxes via Flickr) TODAY’S DAILY DIGIT A somewhat subjective rating of the day’s weather, on a scale of zero to 10. 8/10: Calmer winds and fairly comfortable… near 50 to mid-50s by late afternoon. Not a bad end to the work week! EXPRESS FORECAST Today: Mostly sunny, calmer. Highs: Near 50 to mid-50s. Tonight: Partly cloudy. Lows: Upper 20s to mid-30s. Tomorrow: Mainly sunny until late. Highs: Mid-60s to near 70. Sunday: Turning mainly sunny. Highs: Mid-60s. FORECAST IN DETAIL Hope you’re ready for some spring-like weather. We have a steady warm-up underway, from 50s of today to 60s becoming most likely this weekend. Seventy degrees can’t be ruled out either! Then it looks like a brief nudge cooler, but still warmer than we should be, early next week. Today (Friday): Winds calm to around 5 mph, luckily, as they blow in from the southwesterly direction. Periodic clouds can’t be ruled out, but sunshine should dominate the sky for most of the day. Many of us will enjoy temperatures getting into a fairly comfortable regime for this time of year. We’re talking near 50 to mid-50s. Enjoy! Confidence: High Tonight: Looks fairly calm and partly cloudy. A stray snow flurry nearer dawn can’t be ruled out, but it is unlikely in most spots. Low temperatures should hover in the mid-30s downtown. A few upper 20s are possible well outside of the Beltway. Confidence: Medium-high |
