VIENNA, VA -- Northern Virginia has escaped the clutches of cold winter weather, but suddenly temperatures have climbed into the 80s in the last few days. Temperatures are cooling off and weather will be pleasant for Easter festivities -- that is, until Easter Sunday.
Vienna temperatures reached a high of 75 Wednesday, and by nightfall it cooled to the high 40s, according to Weather.com. There was a chance of showers, but precipitation for the rest of the week is unlikely. Partly cloudy skies will cool off the area more on Tuesday and Friday, with temperatures in the 60s and 40s.
Clouds will continue into Friday morning into Saturday, with temperatures reaching the high 70s and 50s. But Easter Sunday will be a scorcher, as the sun will start to peek out. Sunday's temperature will reach a high of 85 and low of 60.

After a sweltering Easter Sunday, highs are expected to stay in the 60s and 70s for the rest of the month. But as we've seen lately with weather switching from frigid to hot in a matter of days, Mother Nature may always change her mind.
