Virginia – A mild, springlike breeze moves across Virginia Beach this morning, but a noticeable shift arrives by evening as winds strengthen and temperatures begin to fall. The air feels comfortable now, but changes are already underway.
According to the National Weather Service in Wakefield, highs reach near 64°F today under partly sunny skies before temperatures slide later in the afternoon. Southwest winds between 10 and 16 mph will shift north, increasing overnight with gusts up to 30 mph. That wind surge will make conditions feel much cooler heading into early Tuesday.
Across Virginia Beach and the Hampton Roads region, today offers decent travel and outdoor conditions through the afternoon. However, by evening, stronger winds could impact high-profile vehicles along I-264 and the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel. Secure loose outdoor items and prepare for a breezy night.
Temperatures fall to around 40°F tonight under mostly clear skies. The combination of wind and cooling air may create a sharp chill by early Tuesday morning, especially near the coast. While roads remain dry, the colder air will be noticeable for early commuters.
Sunshine returns Tuesday with highs near 47°F, bringing a cooler but stable stretch. By Wednesday, temperatures rebound into the mid-50s under mostly sunny skies, continuing a gradual warming trend.
A stronger push of spring warmth arrives Thursday with highs near 68°F, followed by increasing clouds. Rain chances return Friday afternoon, signaling a shift back to unsettled conditions.
