At the end of a rainy weekend, the sun is expected to come out for Mother’s Day in the D.C. area. But don’t count out a few light showers.
Expect a mix of clouds with patches of sun on Sunday with a slight chance of “spotty showers” north and east of the beltway. Those showers are expected to clear out by evening.
“Mostly cloudy conditions to be expected in the afternoon,” said 7News First Alert Meteorologist Jordan Evans.
