The local outlook

🌤️ Another Breezy Sunday!

Good Sunday, everyone! Another nice day across Loudoun County, with temperatures warming a bit but breezy conditions continuing.

💨 Windy Monday, Then Warmer!

Monday looks partly sunny and windy, with gusts potentially reaching 35 mph. Monday night turns chilly, with lows in the 30s.

Tuesday looks beautiful, with sunshine and temperatures approaching 70. Veterans Day looks nice too, with sunshine and comfortable temperatures.

🌧️ Rain Returns Late Week!

Rain chances increase Wednesday night, with rain likely Thursday into Thursday night. Showers could linger into Friday or Friday night.

The exact track and development of this low pressure system remain uncertain. Some models bring it farther north, which could change our rain amounts and temperatures.

🥶 A Cold Shot Next Weekend!

Much colder air arrives behind the system. Saturday could struggle to get out of the 40s in some locations, with overnight temperatures falling below freezing.

The cold sticks around into early next week, with a potentially widespread freeze by next Wednesday.

❄️ Snowflakes Possible?

Maybe! Friday into Friday night could bring a few flakes to higher elevations west of Loudoun, including the Blue Ridge. For most of Loudoun, I'm expecting mainly rain. I'm not betting on snow here yet!

☀️ Looking Ahead

Once the cold air moves out, temperatures should moderate. The extended outlook currently looks rather dry, with limited rain chances.

The Forecast:

Sunday: Hi 63 ☀️ Lo 43 🌙 – Sunny and breezy.

Monday: Hi 61 🌤️ Lo 37 🌙 – Mostly sunny and windy, gusts to 36 mph.

Tuesday: Hi 68 ☀️ Lo 42 🌙 – Sunny and pleasant.

Wednesday (Veterans Day): Hi 66 ☀️ Lo 42 🌧️20% – Sunny, slight chance of rain overnight.

Thursday: Hi 56 🌧️70% Lo 36 🌧️60% – Rain likely, especially afternoon and evening.

Friday: Hi 48 🌧️40% Lo 31 ☁️🌧️20% – Breezy with a chance of rain.

Saturday: Hi 51 ⛅ Lo 30 🌙 – Partly sunny, breezy and chilly.

🌤️ Chilly and Windy Saturday!

Good Saturday, everyone! We're looking at a mostly sunny but chilly day across Loudoun County. Gusty northwest winds could reach 30 mph, making it feel cooler than the thermometer suggests. Grab a jacket!

☀️ Warmer Sunday Through Wednesday

Sunday brings sunshine and breezy conditions. Monday stays breezy before we warm up nicely Tuesday. Veterans Day on Wednesday looks pretty good, with sunshine and pleasant conditions for outdoor activities.

🌧️ Showers and Colder Weather Return

Things change Thursday as temperatures drop and showers become possible. Rain chances continue into Friday, with a potentially colder and wetter pattern developing next weekend.

🥶 Watching Next Weekend Closely

There is considerable uncertainty about how a low-pressure system and trough will evolve. Depending on their track, we could see highs only in the 40s next Saturday, along with chilly rain and breezy conditions.

Some snowflakes could fall in the mountains, farther west, or north into Pennsylvania and New England. I'm not suggesting snow for Loudoun at this point! It's simply too early to know how things will develop.

🌧️ Some Much Needed Rain?

We certainly could use the rainfall! It's encouraging to see precipitation showing up, but the rain could shift north or east depending on the storm track.

Looking farther ahead, temperatures favor near to above normal conditions, with precipitation closer to normal.

The Forecast:

Saturday: Hi 58 🌤️ Lo 41 🌙 – Mostly sunny, windy and chilly

Sunday: Hi 64 ☀️ Lo 43 🌙 – Sunny and breezy

Monday: Hi 62 🌤️ Lo 37 🌙 – Mostly sunny and breezy

Tuesday: Hi 69 ☀️ Lo 41 🌙 – Sunny and pleasant

Wednesday: Hi 66 ☀️ Lo 41 ☁️ – Sunny for Veterans Day

Thursday: Hi 56 🌧️40% Lo 36 🌧️40% – Cooler with showers possible

Friday: Hi 51 🌧️30% Lo 34 🌧️ – Chance of showers and chilly conditions

Have a great Saturday, everyone!

Good Wednesday morning to you!

🌧️ A disappointing turn for rain
Our chances for a good soaking over the next 24 to 36 hours have really diminished. The storm looks to develop farther east, leaving us with only about 0.10 to 0.25 inches of rain possible. Certainly not the drought relief we were hoping for!

🌤️ Warm and breezy today
Morning fog gives way to sunshine and another very warm afternoon. Winds pick up as the fog clears, with gusts around 22 mph.

Showers become likely late tonight toward Thursday morning. Most of Thursday’s rain chances come before 1 p.m., with only a slight chance afterward. A few scattered showers could return Thursday night into early Friday.

☀️ Cooler weekend with sunshine
Sunshine returns Saturday and sticks around through Tuesday. Cooler weather settles in for the weekend and early next week.

The longer range continues to favor dry conditions. With drought still a concern, the lack of meaningful rain is becoming frustrating.

The Forecast:

Wednesday: Hi 75 🌤️ Lo 60 🌧️60% • Morning fog clears, then mostly sunny, warm and breezy; showers likely late tonight.

Thursday: Hi 74 🌧️40% Lo 59 🌧️40% • Showers mainly before early afternoon, with another chance late at night and patchy fog.

Friday: Hi 69 🌧️30% Lo 48 • Scattered morning showers possible, otherwise mostly cloudy.

Saturday: Hi 61 ☀️ Lo 41 • Sunny and cooler.

Sunday: Hi 60 ☀️ Lo 39 • Another beautiful sunny day.

Monday: Hi 61 ☀️ Lo 37 • Sunny and pleasant.

Tuesday: Hi 65 ☀️ Lo 40 🌙 • Sunny and nice.
