but the cool front has yet to arrive in southern maryland, lower eastern shore. in the mountains, only near 40 degrees. so quite a dramatic drop. there's the cloudy sky over washington now. temporarily a reprieve from the rain. we'll have occasional showers through the morning, early afternoon. here's your day planner. sunrise, 6:07. sunset, 8:03. and then this afternoon with a blustery northwest wind, we begin to dry out. highs near 60. mostly cloudy early evening. then partly cloudy later this evening. a blustery northwest wind. we'll clear out by midnight and dawn tomorrow. but down into the low and mid-40s. so quite a chill coming in for early may. bright and sunny tomorrow. we should warm back up into the upper 60s. afternoon highs friday near 70. a small chance of a shower friday afternoon.

it's continuing to drop in southern maryland. dropped 11 degrees at leonardtown in the last hour. still in the six on the lower eastern shore. but it's going to continue to drop there as well. out of the mountains, western maryland, west virginia, many locations near 40 degrees. there's the drippy sky over washington. live view from city camera. sunrise is 6:07. and blustery winds will be with us off and on in the morning, through the afternoon. we'll be drying out this afternoon as highs reach 60. overnight, 50s. 40s by dawn tomorrow as we clear out after midnight. tomorrow, bright and sunny. into the upper 60s. still a blustery wind. might get an afternoon shower or thundershower. sunny on saturday. low 70s. mother's day sunday might get showers and mostly dry after that. monday tuesday. how is traffic? >> tom, definitely going to be a challenge. good morning, everyone. be aware it could be a little on the slick side. good news as far as the commute on i-95 no accidents to report as you head north. however, there had been an ac

again there, you can see down into southern maryland.s where the last of the raindrops are, and they're moving away from washington, headed down towards the mouth of the bay. good riddance to the rain shower chances. the bulk of the rain missed us anyway, down to the south and southwest. clearing trend across pennsylvania and ohio. our breaks of sunshine will continue to increase as we go through the remainder of the day, i think, as a little bubble of high pressure brings cooler, drier air in. a north to northeasterly breeze for today that will help keep the temperatures in check for much of the week. normally, if it we get four or five days in a row with rain, we start to see a warming trepd. that will not be the case. temperatures are hold steady, mid-70s for highs and through the remainder of the upcoming week. today more clouds than sunshine, but don't be fooled. it's still going to be a very nice day. a quick shower an outside possibility but not a likelihood. otherwise, a delightful mother's day. highs in the upper 60s to low 70s.

the thunderstorms will be tracking to southern maryland. that is the way the weekend will shape up. scattered showers in and around the area and not a complete washout but the threat of rain will linger for the next couple of days. we have a's day, possibility but it looks like tomorrow may have a better chance for random on sunday. we're talking 20% chance of late sunday shower and that will be mainly in the morning and primarily to the south of baltimore. the temperature is right around normal levels for this time of year, the highs in the low '70's. it was kind of like to date but if you're up early, you experience a record-tying a chilly morning. the record low was only 40 degrees which is nine below. the below it was a pretty vulnerable record and we got there this morning. at the airport, the morning low of 40 and the afternoon i was 72 degrees. tree and grass pollen remain very high. 68 degrees in salisbury. there were some showers and western maryland, keeping readings and the '50s. scattered showers are still around on the eastern shore until 9:00 and skies will clear out t
