Wakefield, VA – Virginia residents are waking up to another stretch of mild, comfortable weather, with daytime highs near 80 degrees and plenty of sunshine on tap for Sunday and Monday. According to the National Weather Service in Wakefield, cooler temperatures and lower humidity will keep things pleasant across the region, while breezy conditions are expected along the coast.

Moisture will gradually increase by midweek, bringing higher humidity and a chance for scattered showers on Wednesday, especially for inland communities like Petersburg and Williamsburg. Drivers and beachgoers are urged to use extra caution near the water and to check for updated advisories before heading out.
