Steamy Saturday brings showers, thunderstorm chances to the DC area

Keep the umbrella handy Saturday night: A steamy day across the D.C. area could give way to evening rain.

Isolated showers will be pouring into the region during the evening hours. Temperatures will fall to the upper 60s to low 70s. Rain is expected to stop around midnight.

Nice weather returns on Sunday with less humid air settling into the region. There will be hazy skies with a few clouds. Because of the low humidity, highs will be in the 80s. However, if you’re in the Shenandoah Valley area, there is a chance of showers.

The pleasant weather continues Monday, with sunny to partly cloudy skies and temperatures in the 80s. Tuesday stays mostly sunny as temperatures climb to the upper 80s and low 90s. There will be a rise in humidity throughout that day.

It’ll set up the hottest day of the week on Wednesday. That’s because the forecast calls for mostly sunny skies with highs close to 100 degrees, with a danger of dehydration and heatstroke for anyone outside for extended periods of time.

Also,聽heat index values will be in the lower 100s.
