Northern Virginia Weather: Better By The Day
Northern Virginia Weather: The work week begins with moisture, according to the National Weather Service, but it'll get better.
STERLING, VA — There's no need to fret all that much about the beginning of the work week. Monday likely will bring rain and clouds but as the week goes on, conditions are expected to get better and better. That's the word from the area arm of the National Weather Service.
Another bonus will be relatively comfortable temperatures, with highs in the low-mid 70s. After Monday, the rain chances decrease, with Thursday and Friday looking particularly sunny. But here's something of a warming, high heat and humidity arrive just in time for the weekend.
