In the wake of the drenching rain storm from Sunday, colder and drier air return to the Washington, D.C., area in time for New Year's Eve and New Year's Day activities.
Expect good travel weather Monday, Tuesday and New Year's Day. However, the cold may be pose a challenge for those spending time outdoors.
For New Year's Eve revelers, temperatures will fall through the 30s in the with RealFeel® temperatures in the 20s.
This New Year's Day will be the coldest since 2009, when the high was only 34 degrees at Reagan National Airport.
AccuWeather.com meteorologists are monitoring the potential for a snowstorm in the Northeast on Thursday into Friday.
If the storm organizes quickly enough, accumulating snow could reach across parts of Virginia, Maryland and District of Columbia, while affecting areas farther north with heavy snow.
If the storm is slow to strengthen, New England would solely be clobbered with heavy snow by the storm with light snow westward along the I-80 corridor to the Midwest.
Regardless of the amount of snow that falls around Washington, D.C., Friday will bring the coldest weather of the season so far with a biting wind.
