A push of cooler, less humid air is settling over the Washington, D.C. area and the mid-Atlantic for the balance of this week.
Several days of bright sunshine are in store.
The push of Canadian air will end the daily risk of showers and thunderstorms experienced during the holiday weekend.
Many people will be able to turn off the fans and air conditioners with temperatures dropping into the upper 50s to lower 60s at night.

Many northern and western suburbs will have nighttime temperatures dipping toward 50 degrees.
Each day Wednesday through Friday will bring bright sunshine and a cool breeze with highs generally in the low- to middle-80s.

The only potential weather related travel problem would be patchy early morning fog for long-distance commuters over the interior river valleys. Some highways that could be impacted include the I-66, I-70 and I-83.
For those hitting the Eastern Shore and the beaches this week, the afternoons will still be warm enough to swim and sun, but bring a sweatshirt or jacket for the evenings and mornings.
