A midweek celebration of the nation’s independence is quite nearly upon us, but first, a hot and steamy weekend is on tap for Arlington.
It seems the D.C. area is in for a heat wave, with 90-degree temperatures and plenty of humidity in the forecast for the next few days.
Some more showers are on the way this weekend, though Arlington seems set to avoid a total wash-out if you’re trying to get outside.
Storms will stick around tonight, even though more than a foot of rain has already plagued the D.C. region since mid-May, and could make Saturday a bit dreary as well. Sunday, however, should provide a few rays of sun.
A heat wave is just around the corner, just in time for the weekend (and Father’s Day).
The forecast is set to be gorgeous for the next two days, before things get especially steamy Sunday.
A major D.C. sports team has won a championship for the first time since 1992, but Mother Nature is gearing up to, quite literally, rain on Caps celebrations this weekend.
If you’re looking to keep celebrating the Stanley Cup’s arrival in Washington, or simply heading out to buy some Caps championship gear, you may want to pack an umbrella. The Armed Forces Cycling Classic, the annual Capital Pride Parade and all the weekend’s associated Pride events may get a bit soggy as well, though Saturday morning events are expected to remain dry, for the most part.
It might’ve been a short week (for most of us) but the weekend is here, and it feels just as sweet.
The weather should be nice tonight, but things will likely get a bit wetter Saturday — unbelievably, there is yet more flooding in the forecast.
At last, the long weekend is upon us, and summer is (unofficially) here.
If you’re one of the 1 million or so people leaving the D.C. area, here’s what you can expect on the way out. But if you’re sticking around Arlington, be aware that there is some rain in the forecast for Saturday night and Sunday, so get your grilling done early.
This may not come as any great surprise, given how the last week’s gone, but you’ll need to pack your umbrellas this weekend.
The whole D.C. region is set for a flood watch through Saturday morning. Sadly, we may not even get any relief from all this rain until the middle of next week.
Mother’s Day is nearly upon us — consider this your last warning to buy something nice for mom.
If you’re hoping to enjoy the summer-like weather and catch the Caps game outside, consider swinging by Rosslyn. And should you be heading to any Arlington Soccer Association recreational matches this weekend, remember to keep quiet.
Today was another hot day, but this weekend is looking a bit rainy.
Alter your Derby Day attire accordingly, and remember to be responsible with your celebration during the races and at any Cinco de Mayo festivities you find yourself at.
It might be another weekend to use a ride hailing app — Metro’s weekend service alerts indicate that construction and repairs abound.
We’re also looking at a chance of rain this Saturday, but odds are it won’t be the possibly record-breaking rainstorm that Hawaiians dealt with last week.
Trying to get into or out of town this weekend?
You might want to make alternate plans for going into D.C. or getting to the airport: Metro reports that there will not be Yellow Line service Saturday or Sunday, though the Blue Line will still be running.
It’s finally warming up, and there are plenty of events — like Saturday’s Key School Auction and the League of Women Voters Post Legislative Forum, or the Animal Welfare League of Arlington’s fee-waiver dog adoption weekend — to keep you busy this weekend.
Before any outdoor fun, though, let’s take a look back at ARLnow’s biggest stories over the past week.
