High pressure pushing in from the west has the weekend looking dry and clear.
But before we get there, moderate to heavy rain will fall through the day.
News4's Tom Kierein says occasional showers will drop rain throughout the day Thursday. The precipitation could subside for a period around midday, but more thundershowers are likely in the afternoon. You can check the current radar here.
Lingering showers are possible Friday, before cooler and drier air sweeps in Friday afternoon. The arrival of the dry weather could be accompanied by blustery winds.
Once the rain moves on, the weekend is shaping up to be a good one to spend outside. Brisk morning temperatures in the 40's will give way to afternoon highs in the 60's, along with bright sunshine.
It could be a good time for pumpkin picking, or checking out fall foliage. Colors in the Shenandoahs, the Blue Ridge Mountains and western Maryland are nearing peak color.
Historically, the Washington metro area will not see peak leaf color until Halloween.
