DC Cold Shot Comes After Thanksgiving Day Festivit

Noticeably colder air is headed back to Washington, D.C., but not until after Thursday's Capital Holiday Parade and Black Friday.
Temperatures will slowly rise in Washington, D.C., through Friday as a storm over the western Atlantic remains offshore.
Dry weather will prevail each day despite skies occasionally turning mostly cloudy.
On Thursday, many people will view the weather as perfect for Thanksgiving Day and the city's Capital Holiday Parade.
Underneath a partly sunny sky, a temperature of 52 degrees will kick off the parade. Temperatures will then climb to the day's high of 57 degrees that afternoon. Such a high is fairly common in Washington, D.C., this time of year.
Proving not to be an issue for spectators and organizers, winds during the parade will lightly blow out of the north to northeast at 4-8 mph.
After a nice and dry day on Black Friday with temperatures cracking the 60-degree mark, residents and visitors of Washington, D.C., will be given a harsh reminder that winter is just around the corner this weekend.
Temperatures both Saturday and Sunday will be held to the 40s with gusty winds creating even colder AccuWeather.com RealFeel® temperatures.
