Cooler with isolated thundershowers.
This past weekend’s weather pattern of warm and somewhat humid air with isolated thundershowers will continue for much of this week too. Well, except for that warm part, as cooler air is moving into the region from the east (yes, the east). I don’t see any all-day washouts or anything, so most of your outdoor plans this week should still be okay, but much like this past weekend, have an umbrella handy just in case. Temperatures will start warming up again for the second half of the week, with 80s possible again by Friday.
