and it looks like the better part -- once the rain begins to taper off a little bit we'll end up with a drizzle so it does look like again up get the showers out of here. it's still going to be pretty drizzly -- dreary late into the evening and the overnight hours, too. here's the deal. most of this is moving on. there's a couple more waves of showers that are still coming down 270, northern sections of the beltway and then on down so the commute is just kaput today because with all the rain around this morning and this afternoon has just been a really, really slow go but we can see back to the north and west this little piece of energy that's bringing this rain all day long and most of the heavier rain was kind of south and southwest of the city today, down into the south western suburbs. the thunderstorm activity has moved off to the west and southwest mostly moving through kentucky portions of west virginia down into south western sections of virginia and that really is where the heat is so that is kind of

showers and thunderstorms down there. we're just not warm enough to have anything like that. we've been in the 50's all day long. baltimore is 51 degrees, leonardtown is 52, annapolis 54. way back out in winchester it's 50 degrees. give this a couple more hours and i hate to say it but with the drizzle we're going to have temperatures out there in the upper 40's so it's really going to be raw this evening. i talked about the heat. here it is down here well to the south. raleigh right now is 84. even rich richmond is stuck ine 50's right now at 56 degrees. new york city is warmer than we are at 59. binghamton real nice at 60 degrees and pittsburgh is 53. this evening's forecast showers will continue on and off for the next hour or two. i think the nats game is in pretty good shape. it's going to be a little bit wet but they should be able to get the game in. 54, 54, this is in town. out in the suburbs it will be colder than this. i just showed you a reading in winchester 50 so they could be down in the 40's over the next couple hours. we'll keep at least a chance of a shower in. once the showers move

the drizzle kind of hangs in late evening and during the overnight. here's the trend. only 58 tomorrow, we're stuck in clouds with some rain. rain continues on saturday. i think we're even colder. we're north of the low pressure so it's going to be the north so we're only 57 on- saturday and then finally, finally we're going to start going the right direction. okay, mother's day we're going for a temperature of 74 degrees so that will be so much nicer and it's pretty close to normal. we should be about 75 and then monday 76. and by next week, we're talking 80's and maybe 90 degrees out there, okay, so this weekend we do good at least for -- with showers and a pretty good rain on saturday and then for mother's day, all things are good, some sunshine, we warm back up into the 70's as high pressure kind of takes in and say to all the moms out there for monday -- for sunday more mother's day and then saturday rain and chilly so it's not the greatest of the weekends but we'll end up pretty nice it looks like. some sun breezy, 74 degrees. i got to say this just so you know, some of the models are hinting at

two on sunday but it should be real, real light and very wide widely scattered if it happens s a at all. on saturday temps in the 50's, rain and it does look like by saturday afternoon into saturday evening we'll start to dry out a little bit but it's going stay chilly and we'll have clouds in place, so, again, it just looks like the next couple of days around here are growing to be wet, wet, wet. tonight we're 51, drizzle a few showers moving through but i think mainly just cloudy and drizzly. tomorrow we'll start off with a few showers, drizzle and then we end up rainier in the afternoon, okay and tomorrow's temperature with the rain, the clouds and that east wind at five to 10 we're only going to be in the 50's so it's going to be not too terribly warm tomorrow o it's not going to feel that warm at all. winchester you're only 51. culpeper 54. and fredericksburg gets up to about 56 degrees or so. look, here's the seven-day forecast. and if you want to just jump to mother's da 7
