Clouds will hold off until Sunday night.
Monday is set to be the coldest day of the week and dreary. Expect chilly temps in the low to mid-40s alongside showers and drizzle around the Capital Beltway.
High temperatures for Monday will rise only in the mid to upper 30s in the Potomac Highlands - which could bring a brief morning wintry mix.
