Quiet Midweek Holds Across Much of U.S. as Friday System Brings Showers and Brief Warmup

Forecasters now expect a faster Friday arrival for the next round of showers, followed by improving conditions for much of the weekend.

Overview

  • Cold nights persist in the Northeast with many inland spots dipping into the 20s under clear skies and light winds.
  • The D.C. area’s Tuesday evening rain, totaling around a half inch in places, is moving out with lingering drizzle early Wednesday before gradual drying.
  • Early-morning patchy dense fog remains possible in southeast Louisiana, including the Northshore and river parishes, with isolated superfog risk where smoke mixes in.
  • Showers are favored Friday into Friday night for many regions with milder temperatures, then clearing in most areas by Saturday though some locales may see brief leftover clouds or a stray shower.
  • A cold front is forecast to pass through southeast Louisiana Saturday morning, knocking highs from the low 80s to the mid 70s by Sunday and Monday, while South Florida stays bright and dry with coastal highs in the low 80s.
