Virginia Beach, VA – Clear skies and calm air stretch over the Virginia coast this morning, with the sunrise glinting off the Atlantic in that soft, early-November light. The weekend begins calm and mild, but don’t let the still air fool you — a damp shift arrives late Sunday as a coastal system edges toward Hampton Roads, bringing steady rain and cooler breezes into Monday.
According to the National Weather Service in Wakefield, high pressure will dominate through Sunday afternoon, keeping skies bright and temperatures near 63°F today and mid-60s Sunday. Winds remain light through the morning before turning northeast and strengthening slightly by evening. Clouds thicken after dark Sunday, with rain likely to develop after 2 a.m. and linger into early Monday.
Rain chances rise to 60 percent through the pre-dawn hours Monday, tapering by afternoon. The heaviest rainfall is expected across coastal areas from Norfolk to the Eastern Shore, where up to half an inch could accumulate. Commuters on I-64, Route 58, and the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel should plan for wet pavement and reduced visibility during the Monday morning drive.
By Tuesday, sunshine returns with highs near 61°F and a light west breeze — a welcome reset after a damp start to the week. The mild pattern continues into midweek, though long-range models hint at a colder surge by mid-November, possibly bringing the first frost inland before Thanksgiving.
For now, residents can enjoy one more pleasant day for leaf cleanup, early decorating, or coastal walks before the rain sets in Sunday night — a fitting reminder that November’s rhythm of calm and change has officially begun.
