By David Streit
A jacket would be a good idea, especially since the sun sets before the end of the game. Let’s hope it isn’t the end of the playoffs.

Nationals vs. Brewers weather forecast: Warm for a fall game, rain chances up late
By Ian Livingston
Most or all of the game should end up dry, but as we get past 4 p.m. or so, chances that showers or t’showers move in grow to about a coin flip. Otherwise, just a touch of humidity out ahead of the front, but not too bad.

By Ian Livingston
Some sun should be around as the game gets underway, and there’s a decent shot that we get through it all without any bad weather. However, a line of potentially damaging storms could be knocking on the door by game’s end. Prepare for the possibility of it to arrive while out, just in case.

Unless you’re a fan of baking in the sun, be glad this isn’t a midday game. Heat and humidity probably call for an extra beer (plus lots of water!). If there’s a t’shower, it’ll be isolated.

NatCast: Early shower or storm?
By Dan Stillman
Could be a passing early-game shower or storm. Otherwise, it’s the usual summer warmth and muginess at the ballpark.

If there are any showers or storms, they probably don’t last long enough to wash out the game. But they might briefly soak you and your seat.

NatCast: Shower early, storm late?
By Brian Jackson
The game starts around what may be the tail end of any early-to-midday shower activity, and they might get most of it in before the best chance of scattered afternoon storms. Still, I’d prepare for at least the possibility of a few early showers and a late-game t’storm.

By Dan Stillman
The chance of storms across the area gradually increases as we get into the mid-to-late innings. But if there are storms they’ll likely be hit or miss.

Storms that bubble up in the heat of the afternoon may continue roaming the area into the evening. While the odds are good it won’t be a total rainout, the chance of some rain is also fairly high.
