Let's dive into something super cool - the heat island effect. Urban areas like Washington District of Columbia can be significantly warmer than surrounding rural regions due to concrete, asphalt, and buildings absorbing and re-radiating heat. It's like nature's own microwave, but way less tasty! Speaking of heat, tonight we're looking at mostly clear skies with temperatures dropping to around 64 degrees Fahrenheit. The east wind will be hanging around at about 6 miles per hour before getting super chill and becoming calm in the evening. Three-day forecast rapid fire: Saturday - Sunny, high near 86 degrees Fahrenheit. Saturday night - Mostly clear, low around 66 degrees Fahrenheit. Sunday - Sunny, high near 88 degrees Fahrenheit.
