Some Showers and Storms in the Area

A line of showers and some thunderstorms moved through the Washington DC metro area from about 4-5pm. Some places had moderate to heavy downpours, while others received little or no rain. Official amounts ranged from 0.02" (Dulles) to 0.10" at National and 0.21" at BWI, where rain is continuing.

A smaller area of storms is now moving northeastward toward the western suburbs, and could reach the downtown area around 6pm. Scattered showers are still possible through the evening, but activity will likely diminish after this next batch. You can track the storms with the radar loop from WJLA-TV.
