A round of showers will swing through Washington, D.C., Thursday into Friday morning.
A weak storm riding along a front will slide through the area, producing the sporadic rainfall.
Despite the seemingly wet offing, the vast majority of the time will be free of rain through Friday. Total rainfall Wednesday night through Friday morning is likely to be less than one-quarter of an inch.
When the rain falls, most of it will not be heavy. However, with any downpour in urban areas, there is a risk of brief poor-drainage area flooding and travel delays.
In between the showers, the sun can peek out.
