SATURDAY WILL BE A WET DAY WITH RAIN AT TIMES… SUNDAY SHOULD BE DRY AND SEASONAL… THE ACTIVE PATTERN CONTINUES NEXT WEEK WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR ANOTHE
A weak low pressure system off the N.C. coast will slowly strengthen during the day Saturday bringing a good chance of rain here in Hampton Roads. Temperatures won’t be too chilly due to winds slowly veering around to the south and southwest. The low pulls away on Sunday which will result in a fairly nice day for early February. Temperatures will be seasonal which means that high temperatures will be in the mid to upper forties. Another system is expected to cause some unsettled weather later Monday and Tuesday but right now, it’s not expected to be a significant event. From what I’ve read, models can’t even agree whether we will see any precipitation from this system. Of more concern is a storm system that may impact our region on Thursday. This system could pack a punch so forecasters will be closely monitoring the development of this potential system. Very chilly air is expected to follow that system on Friday. I’ll have more on the potential late week system in my Sunday morning post. Thanks for reading and have a great day!
