WASHINGTON, D.C. – After a stretch of muggy summer days, residents in the D.C. area can look forward to a refreshing change in the weather as a cold front brings cooler, drier air to the region on Monday.
According to 7News meteorologists, early risers may experience a few pre-dawn sprinkles, but those showers will clear quickly, making way for a bright and sunny day.
Comfortable Temperatures and Lower Humidity
Monday’s high temperatures are expected to reach the low to mid-80s, but it won’t feel oppressive thanks to noticeably lower humidity levels. A gentle northwest breeze will keep the air moving, making it a great day to spend time outdoors or catch the opening rounds of the Mubadala Citi Open.
Dew points will fall into the lower 60s, a significant drop from recent sticky conditions. This will make the air feel much more pleasant and breathable throughout the day.
Cool Night Ahead
The relief continues into the night, with overnight lows dipping into the 60s—well below the seasonal average of 72°F for late July. It will be one of the coolest nights the region has seen in weeks, offering a chance to give air conditioners a break.
Extended Outlook
This comfortable weather pattern is expected to stick around for the next few days. Daytime highs will remain in the 80s, and the lack of humidity will make it feel much more tolerable.
However, by the end of the week, the heat will begin to build again, and with it, storm chances may return heading into the weekend.
Enjoy the refreshing break while it lasts—perfect weather for outdoor plans, sports events, and evening strolls.
