VIRGINIA BEACH, VA – The Atlantic glows faintly under pre-dawn stars this Tuesday morning as a light westerly breeze brushes across the shoreline. The calm, mild air marks the start of a tranquil stretch for the Virginia coast—one of those picture-perfect fall weeks ideal for walks along the boardwalk, evening bonfires, or late-season yardwork before cooler weather arrives next week.
According to the National Weather Service in Wakefield, high pressure remains in control through midweek, keeping conditions dry and bright across Hampton Roads and the Tidewater region. Tuesday’s high will reach near 72°F, followed by a slight chance of showers Tuesday night as a weak disturbance skirts the coast. Any rainfall should stay light and brief, with roads drying quickly by Wednesday morning.
Wednesday and Thursday bring classic fall weather: sunshine, highs near 70°F, and low humidity. Southwest winds around 10 to 15 mph will make afternoons feel pleasantly crisp, while clear nights drop into the low 50s. Those planning coastal travel on Route 13 or I-64 can expect good visibility and smooth commutes.
By Friday, temperatures will edge warmer—approaching 83°F inland—before easing again for the weekend. The pattern remains dry and stable, but forecasters hint that a stronger front may approach next week, possibly setting the stage for the region’s first widespread fall chill as November nears.
For now, southeast Virginia enjoys its final stretch of steady warmth under deep blue skies—a reminder that autumn’s quiet beauty is holding firm before the season’s inevitable turn.
