Tomorrow (Thursday): Sunshine may win out at times through the morning, but it’s the “self-defeating” kind where cold air aloft allows any warmth to bubble up into new clouds. A sprinkle or passing shower is possible late in the day as temperatures reach the mid- and upper 50s for highs. Winds from the west blow around 10 to 15 mph.

April showers: We’ve now seen at least a trace (raindrops falling) of rain in D.C. for eight of the last nine days. April is off to a particularly showery start, with more than a quarter inch on each day of the month so far, including around 1 inch today.
Totals from recent days are mainly about 1 to 1.5 inches locally and into southern parts of the area. To the north, totals of 2 to 3 or more inches are more common. As much as 3.5 inches fell west of Frederick, with more than 3 inches around Ellicott City and just shy of 3 inches at BWI-Marshall.
