WASHINGTON — We've issued a Weather Watch Alert for periods of rain and showers Saturday and Sunday.
Quick Forecast:
Tonight: Mostly cloudy and mild with some showers late. Low: 55.
Saturday: Much cooler with periods of light rain and drizzle. High: 60.
Saturday Night: Cloudy with more light rain and drizzle. Low: 56.
Sunday: Mostly cloudy and not as cool. More rain and showers. High: 69.
Showers will start to push east of I-81 later tonight and lead us into a wet and chilly weekend.
It won't be a total washout, rather a weekend with cloudy skies and off and on periods of rain and drizzle. Weekend baseball and soccer will more than likely still be played, but there's a risk of postponement and even a slim risk of cancellation. It will still be ok to attend the Landon Azalea Festival just bring an umbrella and a light jacket.
Highs will be noticeably cooler, in the 50s and 60s Saturday. Sunday will be a few degrees warmer in the upper 60s and low 70s. Saturday night and Sunday morning looks like the wettest part of the weekend with moderate showers at times.
