Virginia Beach, VA – Sunshine dominates the skies over Virginia Beach on Tuesday, June 3rd, but a smoky haze could dull the view — and your lungs. With Canadian wildfire smoke drifting into the region, air quality could dip during peak afternoon hours, especially near major roadways like I-264 and coastal neighborhoods.
According to the National Weather Service in Wakefield, Tuesday will be mostly sunny with a high near 79°F. Light winds from the southeast may not be strong enough to clear lingering haze. No rain is expected, but officials are monitoring fine particulate levels that could trigger short-term air quality alerts.
Residents with respiratory issues should limit outdoor activity during the afternoon, especially children, seniors, and those with asthma. Consider keeping windows closed and using air purifiers if sensitive to smoky conditions. Skies will remain clear into Tuesday night, with lows near 63°F and calm conditions overnight.
