Storm Team4 Forecast: Morning drizzle to dry out ahead of this week's warmup

The useful part

Rain finally over Remaining cloudy Monday Warming trend starts Tuesday Warm, sunny by mid-week The rain is over but the sunshine is still a day or so away. The nor'easter responsible for the weekend's rain and wind is currently off the Jersey Shore. By the end of the day, it will be leaving Long Island and by the end of Tuesday, it will be leaving the Gulf of Maine.

How it works

• High pressure will be building into the area so rain chances will dry up Monday morning and our next chance for rain isn't likely to arrive until the Saturday afternoon or evening.
• With the storm still relatively close by, our skies will remain mostly cloudy for the remainder of the day.
• It will be warmer than Sunday's mid-60s but highs Monday afternoon aren't likely to get much above 70°.
• Download the NBC Washington app on iOS and Android to check the weather radar on the go.
• There should still be enough sunshine in the first half of the day Tuesday to lift temperatures into the low to mid-70s.

What to take from it

Mainly sunny skies will bring highs to around 80° on Wednesday, 85° on Thurs...
