Harborfest Begins Today!

Fri, 03 Jul 2009 05:19:29 -0500

Such a great event--and the weather will cooperate...

An Independence Day to Celebrate!

Thu, 02 Jul 2009 23:26:05 -0500

Friday will be more comfortable with a high temperature in the lower to mid 80s. Skies will be partly cloudy early with a slight chance of a shower, then clearing. As we head into the weekend Friday night, skies should be mostly clear and Saturday looks to be mostly sunny as well. Temperatures Saturday will climb back in the mid to upper 80s.

A Stormy Night...

Thu, 02 Jul 2009 06:02:44 -0500

But the weather will be much calmer during the day on Thursday.

Additional Isolated Storms Possible

Wed, 01 Jul 2009 22:34:34 -0500

Wednesday was a scorcher. The hot weather helped set off a few isolated storms during the evening and we may not be done yet. Thursday will be another very warm day with highs climbing to near 90°. It will be partly to mostly sunny for most of the day, but heat, a slight increase in humidity, and a weak front may produce a stray shower or storm, especially during the afternoon

More Sunshine, But a Shot at Storms

Tue, 30 Jun 2009 23:36:42 -0500

We should squeeze out another fairly pleasant day Wednesday, but the chances for isolated showers or storms will increase by late afternoon or early evening. Temperatures will continue to be a bit on the warm side, topping out around 90°. Skies will be mostly sunny early and become partly cloudy late.

Here Comes the Heat

Tue, 30 Jun 2009 04:59:21 -0500

After a comfortable start to the day, we'll be in the 90s this afternoon.

Lower Humidity Takes the Edge Off Heat

Mon, 29 Jun 2009 23:00:13 -0500

High temperatures in the upper 80s to lower 90s are a lot easier to deal with when the humidity is lower. That was evident Monday and will be the case Tuesday as our mainly clear weather pattern continues. It will be slightly warmer Tuesday with highs in the lower to mid 90s across the region. Humidity will build later Wednesday and into Thursday we will find the chances for isolated storms increasing.

Turning Up the Heat

Mon, 29 Jun 2009 04:58:17 -0500

Appropriately enough in the run up to July 4th it will definitely feel like summer.

The heat returns

Sun, 28 Jun 2009 20:25:12 -0500

A good deal of cloud cover during the day on Sunday kept temperatures down, but look for warmer temperatures through the work week.

A Seasonable Sunday

Sun, 28 Jun 2009 08:14:07 -0500

Looks like our luck will hold this weekend...

Hot Today, but Some Relief on the Way

Fri, 26 Jun 2009 08:08:23 -0500

Southwest winds blowing 5 to 10 miles per hour will drive temperatures into the lower to mid 90s this afternoon. With the heating comes the risk of stray showers or storms. The better chances for showers or storms will occur late tonight as a cold front slips through the Hampton Roads.

Feeling Hot Hot Hot!

Thu, 25 Jun 2009 07:44:19 -0500

High temperatures today will be above normal for the first time in four days. A sea breeze should keep afternoon highs in the upper 80s along the coast. Inland areas should be in the lower to mid 90s. The heat won't let up significantly anytime soon. Highs tomorrow will reach the lower to mid 90s for most areas.

Typical Temps Today... Steamy Tomorrow

Wed, 24 Jun 2009 06:59:16 -0500

The normal high this time of year is 85°. We will be pretty close to that today, maybe a degree or two cooler. Changes are coming. Highs for the following six days will be near or above normal. Over that period, some parts of the region could find highs in the lower to mid 90s.

Minor Coastal Flooding Possible This Evening

Tue, 23 Jun 2009 07:29:36 -0500

A Coastal Flood Advisory is in effect this evening through 1 AM Wednesday. North winds are combining with high astronomical tides to bring a threat of minor tidal flooding to the coast and lower Chesapeake Bay. It will be partly sunny with a slight chance of a shower or storm today. Temperatures continue to run a bit below normal, topping out around 80°. Enjoy the relatively cool weather now, the heat will soon return.

Enjoy the Break From the Heat

Mon, 22 Jun 2009 06:31:29 -0500

For the next three days our weather will be relatively pleasant. We will see a slight chance for a stray shower this afternoon or overnight tonight, but generally skies will be partly cloudy. North winds will blow for the next couple of days and temperatures will stay near normal in the lower 80s for most areas. Changes are coming later in the week.
