Hopefully, you enjoyed two days of record-setting, warm temperatures in the Washington, D.C., area — because the rest of the week will be chilly with some chances for rain.
Storm Team4 is tracking rain chances for Wednesday and late Friday, plus the potential for a wintry mix on Saturday afternoon.
Tuesday's highs are set to reach the mid-50s as winds settle down. It will stay dry with mostly to partly cloudy skies, Storm Team4 says.
There's a 100% chance of rain on Wednesday, with rain clouds moving in before sunrise.
Expect a wet, cold morning commute. Steady rain is expected to continue through the morning and likely won't end until the afternoon.
Temperatures will be in the upper 30s to around 40°. It could be cold enough for a little snow north of D.C. and in higher-elevation areas.
The end of the week is looking more pleasant. On Thursday, you can look forward to temperatures closer to 50° and mostly dry weather — although a period or two of drizzle is possible.

A wintry mix is possible in the afternoon with ferocious winds gusting up to 40 mph.
