Mostly cloudy with scattered showers….We’ll continue to see unsettled weather today into the start of the work week, courtesy of an area of low pressure that will linger over the Mid-Atlantic. So, keep your umbrella handy. Today, we’re expecting mostly cloudy skies with scattered showers from time to time. High temperatures will be in the mid 60s. Tonight, scattered showers are in the forecast. Otherwise, we’ll see cloudy skies with areas of patchy fog. Low temperatures will be in the mid 50s.

On Monday, we’ll likely see a few more scattered showers as low pressure continues to meander in our backyard. Otherwise, we’ll see partly to mostly cloudy skies with highs in the mid and upper 60s. A few showers and possibly some thunderstorms are in Tuesday’s forecast. Highs will warm up into the mid 70s. Then, our forecast will start to improve as we move through the week. In fact, we’ll see a nice mix of sun and clouds from Wednesday through at least the start of the weekend. High temperatures will warm back into the mid 80s.
