be along a warm front that willl still be to our south tomorrow.o we're not looking at a who the day tomorrow, but we are lookin atbu more rain in the forecast n thursday and on friday.nd o we're going to try to time out o at least a, post office of that with you.ou. how about these high hi temperatures today, 8 # degrees, average is 84. 80 for dulles, such a beautifult evening.ev again, tomorrow with more clouds we're still only about 8 #bout degrees. not thinkings it's a who the day with that warm front down to our south, but the significance ofof the warm front getting closer is it gets us closer to unstable air and it becomes the real roal track for areas of low pressurer and that will likely bring us some showers late wednesday into thursday, maybe a rumble of thursday as well with ah temperature of 80-degrees. let's focus on what's going on at the moment, though, with that 80-degree reading.ding 74 for annapolis, dulles 80, martinsburg 78.g 78 winchester as well, what a greaa night. and a big part of it is this,
