Saturday and Sunday will look very different as a storm system moves into the Mid-Atlantic region. Saturday will be a mostly sunny and seasonal day, with highs in the low 50s and just a thin layer of high clouds. Cloud cover will thicken Saturday night into Sunday morning, and skies will be overcast by sunrise. Rain will become likely Sunday, holding temperatures in the upper 40s in most areas. Saturday will be the best outdoor day! Have a great weekend,

Wintry Mix Exiting The Area
The last batch of light rain and sleet is rapidly moving to the east, so we will quickly dry off for the rest of this afternoon and evening. Most areas around Richmond saw a mixture of sleet and rain, but farther north there were reports of some light snow. Here is a picture from John Wheeler, our weather watcher from Ruther Glen. He says that the precip this morning started as snow, then changed to sleet and rain.
Some Sleet In The Area
Some patches of sleet mixed with very light rain is now moving across the area. Temperatures are well above freezing, so the ice pellets are melting on impact. Most of the precipitation will end later this afternoon.
Light Rain, Or Mix Possible This Morning
The air is slowing saturating this morning, so we will eventually see isolated light rain showers develop across the region. Temperatures are still cold enough to support a few snow flakes mixed in with the rain. Skies will quickly clear by late afternoon and evening as the storm system quickly exits.
