it's going to be cold. the good news is we're dry. but i want to make sure that everyone is bundled up. temperatures will be in the low 40s at the time they're lighting the tree, so definitely stay warm. now, rain is in the forecast and we'll get to that in just a moment. here are four things you need to know. we are not expecting rain this evening. showers will begin late tonight. we could even see some pockets of freezing rain, very isolated in nature. i'll show you the areas that could pick up that. and we are in a slight warming trend, believe it or not. i'm not going to say warm, but warmer than we have been seeing this weekend. here's the radar right now. you can see already seeing some showers farther west of i-81, just south of hagerstown there. they are very light in nature and that's what we're expecting, light showers tonight, back towards the del marva peninsula, also picking up lighter rain. now, the rain is going to be moving through overnight. bigger picture shows the whole setup. we've got an area of low pressure that will make its way towards us. we've also got rain that's impacting southern maryland and the easn

through tomorrow morning. let's time this out and take a look at the model right now. really giving everyone a shot at seeing very light showers overnight around 2:00 a.m. the pink to the north of us is denoting that wintry mix or freezing rain, and i think depending on how low temperatures go along i-81 and farther west into western maryland, eastern west virginia, we could see isolated pockets of freezing rain there. for everyone else, we are staying pretty clear of freezing rain, just light showers. moving to 7:00 a.m., notice who's waking up to the showers. areas like southern maryland as you head towards the eastern shore. we could see lighter showers there. but the big picture does show us drying as we head throughout your monday. by the afternoon, that rain is out of here and we even get some clearing on the back end so we might get some peeks of sunshine for your monday afternoon. that's good news. tuesday starts off quiet, dry, some clouds with us but i think we'll see mostly sunny conditions on tuesday. so your bus st

temperatures not as low as this weekend, but tomorrow is still pretty cold. so puffy gold needed. upper 30s, low 40s. showers around 7:00 a.m. southeast of d.c. we move into the remainder of your day. if you are running errands, the afternoon will be the easiest as far as weather goes. can't say the same for traffic. temperatures tomorrow are reaching the low 50s. so here's a warming trend i was talking about. your storm team 4 ten-day outlook. 51 on monday. as we head towards the middle and end of the week we will be approaching that 60-degree mark. we will cool down next weekend. the next opportunity for frrains friday as well as saturday. still ahead, rough day at the office for the redskins. we head into a frustrated locker room cing up next.om
