Maryland: Work Week Looking OK

MARYLAND — The work week in Maryland is expected to be a tad cooler than the one prior, according to the area arm of the National Weather Service. Even so, this is late July, so expect temperatures in the 80s and the ever-present threat of isolated thunderstorms.

Monday should be a speed bump en route to better things, with a lingering possibility of showers. Flash ahead to Tuesday, though, and you're looking at a stretch of sunny days until Friday, when clouds could rule the day. Here's the latest forecast from the National Weather Service:
