The DC region is in for a cool week, so it's time to dig out those sweaters and maybe grab an umbrella. After a pleasant Sunday for the Marine Corps Marathon, with light winds and some clouds, temperatures are expected to drop into the high 30s overnight.

Monday will see a rise in temperatures, reaching the 50s, but don't get too comfortable. The week ahead is set to be cool and somewhat damp. Showers are on the way, with a gradual increase in their frequency. By Tuesday, passing showers will start to appear, and by Wednesday and Thursday, they'll become more widespread.

The weather pattern for the week is not exactly what one would call warm. Highs will mostly hover in the 50s, with breezy conditions and occasional rain. It's not the best week for outdoor plans, but it's manageable with the right preparation.

For those who enjoy a bit of rain, this week offers plenty of opportunities. However, for those who prefer sunshine, it might be a bit disappointing. The good news is that the rain won't be too heavy, with amounts ranging from 0. 25 to 0. 50 inches.

So, what can you do to make the most of this week? Bundle up, stay dry, and maybe enjoy a cozy day indoors. It's all about making the best of what Mother Nature has in store.
