PM Update: Tonight's cold front leads to a burst of wind and a seasonable Thursday.

Much of the area made it into the 60s again today. D.C.’s temperatures were held back somewhat by a wind off the cooler river, a sure sign of spring. The unusually warm weather of the past two days is about done. A cold front tonight delivers some more wind and somewhat lower temperatures Thursday.

Through Tonight: Mostly clear skies will persist into the night. We may see clouds increase a bit for a time after midnight, as a front passes. There’s a small chance of a quick shower, as well. Lows will range from the mid-30s to near 40. The frontal passage will make winds briefly quite gusty in the predawn period. A few gusts near 40 mph are possible.

Tomorrow (Thursday): Any of the predawn wind burst will tend to end. Otherwise, it will be mostly sunny and about 10 degrees cooler than today, which is close to normal for the date. Winds will be out of the northwest around 10 mph, with gusts near 20 mph.
