We’re mainly dry the next several days, other than the chance of a light shower this morning and perhaps a few light showers on Saturday.

A few more showers and thundershowers could come through this evening. The weekend forecast depends on the location of a cold front.

Sustained springtime warmth means nice weather for outdoor activities -- when it’s not raining.

Check out this collection of eclipse views from space, the ground and the air between.

The “wow” factor won’t be as great in D.C. as in the solar eclipse’s path of totality. But it will still be a rare sky-watching and educational opportunity.

Flood watch in effect through Wednesday afternoon. Scattered showers likely Thursday afternoon into evening.

Damaging winds and a quick-hitting tornado cannot be ruled out, especially south and southeast of the District.

Confidence is rising that they should be able to get this game in.

We’re still on the cool side the next few days, but could approach or reach 70 this weekend.

Initial forecasts lean toward sunnier skies over Texas and cloudier skies to the north, but it’s much too soon to place confidence in this outlook.
