Unpredictable Weather: D.C. Braces for Flooding, Snow, and Storms

A powerful storm system is moving over the Mid-Atlantic, bringing turbulent weather to the D.C. area. The storm will have two phases, with mild and rainy weather expected until Sunday evening, followed by a wintry mix of rain, sleet, and snow into Monday morning. The heaviest rain is expected between 6 p.m. and midnight, with the potential for flooding near small streams and poor drainage areas. Temperatures will drop from the 60s to the 30s between the phases, but most snow should end by sunrise Monday. While the morning commute may not be significantly affected, caution is advised due to reduced visibility and the possibility of slushy conditions on roads.
