Virginia Beach, VA – Areas of fog will develop overnight across eastern Virginia, with a mostly cloudy start expected Monday before skies begin to clear in the afternoon. According to the National Weather Service Wakefield office, a warming trend will continue through Tuesday, with daytime highs climbing into the low to mid-80s.
Officials warn, however, that a significant hazard is developing along Virginia’s coast. A high risk of rip currents will remain in effect at all beaches through Tuesday, as swells from Tropical Storm Gabrielle increase surf conditions. Beachgoers are urged to avoid swimming in unguarded areas.
By Wednesday, forecasters expect increasing clouds and scattered afternoon thunderstorms, with highs around 80 degrees. Showers and isolated storms are likely to continue into Thursday and Friday, bringing cooler air and daytime highs in the upper 70s.
Looking ahead to the weekend, temperatures are expected to range from the low 70s to upper 70s, with overnight lows dipping into the upper 50s. The National Weather Service notes that a slow-moving system may keep showers in the forecast late into next weekend.
Residents are advised to monitor local updates and exercise caution at beaches, particularly with rip current dangers expected to remain high through early week.
