Breezy, cool weather sweeps the DC region Saturday but Sunday will be warmer

Saturday will be a breezy, cold and partly cloudy day, as the gusts from Friday’s wind advisory mellow out.

You may want to bundle up for your Saturday plans with lows expected to be in the 30s. The National Weather Service issued a wind advisory Friday until 10 p.m, but even as that clears out, weather may still be windy.

“Now that we’re behind that front, temperatures, again, stay below average for this afternoon,” 7News First Alert Meteorologist Jordan Evans said. “But still with the sunshine it won’t feel too bad out there.”

The cool breeze won’t linger throughout the weekend. Sunday’s highs could be anywhere from 50 to 52 degrees.

“Tomorrow the winds increase slightly out of the south but still warmer temperatures,” Evans said.

Sunday will likely still bring more clouds than sunshine, even with higher temperatures.

Sunday night skies will be clear but it will be cold with lows in the 20s. By the time you head back to work on Monday, it will be sunny with temperatures in the high 30s and low 40s — a warming trend to start off the holiday week.
