VIRGINIA BEACH, VA – The air feels still and salty along the coast this morning, calm before a mild November weekend that will shift toward unsettled skies by Sunday. Golden sunlight is set to warm the beaches and boardwalks today, with the weekend offering a brief “November tease” of springlike warmth before rain and storms return to close it out.
According to the National Weather Service in Wakefield, clear skies and light winds dominate early Friday, with highs near 66°F under full sun. By Saturday, temperatures will climb into the upper 60s to near 70°F as southerly breezes pick up — a pattern drawing in both warmth and moisture from the Atlantic.
That moisture could spark a few scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms Saturday night into Sunday, especially near the coast and along Route 58. Sunday remains breezy and humid, with highs around 72°F before clouds thicken and showers become likely by evening. Some downpours may linger into early Monday morning, briefly affecting commuters and Veterans Day event setups.
By Monday, the system clears with cooler air filtering in behind it. Highs will dip back into the 50s, with a fresh northwest wind and a crisper feel returning by Tuesday. It’s a fast but familiar pattern for coastal Virginia — a warm burst followed by a sharp cooldown, signaling that true late-fall air isn’t far behind.
Residents planning outdoor activities should use Saturday for beach walks, leaf cleanup, or early holiday errands, but keep rain gear ready for Sunday evening travel.
