WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW:

A cold front is moving into the region, forcing several batches of rain to fall down as the morning commute is underway.

Brief gusty downpours may reduce visibility as well as create slick spots on the roadways.

Around 0.75 inches (on average) is forecast to come through. And while that won't remove any drought thoughts across the region, it will help.

Temps cool down through the day, with lots of sun and breezy winds.

Temps turn colder overnight, with some spots possibly dealing with frost conditions for Thursday morning.

Temps start off rather chilly for Friday morning but warm up close to seasonal levels.

Saturday looks and feels great, all day long. It is the Pick of the Week.

Sunday into Monday, there is the potential for rain and wind to return to the region as a storm moves up the East Coast.
