After a Fourth of July-sized interruption to the weekly routine, the weekend, and end to this heat wave, is nearly here.
The D.C. area has seen seven straight days with highs above 90 degrees, but that finally seems set to wrap up as we move into the weekend.
Take a look at our event calendar to catch up on all the post-Independence Day goings on, but be sure to allow some extra time if you’re taking Metro anywhere around the county.
Should you find yourself waiting for a train, or otherwise looking to kill some time online, check out our most popular stories from the past week:
