Mild St. Patrick's Day with scattered showers and highs in the 60s
WASHINGTON - Happy St. Patrick's Day! Expect more gray than green Tuesday as we are waking up to plenty of clouds and maybe some isolated showers or a few areas of fog. It's also on the chilly side with temperatures in the 40s.

FOX 5’s Sue Palka says that while we will still have a slight shower risk through the afternoon with clouds hanging tough, the temperatures will be on the rise as we head for the low to mid-60s. That will be about 10 degrees warmer than Monday and make it a little easier to spend some time outside today as we continue to practice that all-important social distancing.

We clear out late tonight and temperatures will be chilly between 35 and 40 degrees.
Even warmer afternoons ahead later this week -- maybe even our first 80 degree day of 2020!
Hang in there! We will get through this together!
