Good morning, D.C. Are we finally on the edge of ridding ourselves of this week’s miserable weather? Clouds are lingering today, but tomorrow’s weather looks like it will do a whole lot to erase the last few days of rain, cold, and the general atmosphere of lethargy. There’s plenty of 60s forecasted for our future, Washington. And while the last few days haven’t been pleasant, it could always be worse — at least we’re not desperately piling sandbags to prevent a nor’easter from pulling our homes into the Chesapeake.
