The backdoor cold front that moved through Hampton Roads Thursday night and early Friday is going to return as a warm front on Sunday. The cool flow of air off of the ocean on Saturday will keep temperatures below normal… probably in the 50′s in most places. The winds will shift around to a more southerly direction on Sunday which will bring in milder temperatures. Clouds will be around on Saturday but some sunshine is possible every once in a while. On Sunday, a shower is possible, but overall, it should be a nice day with warmer temperatures. On Monday, temperatures really heat up as we may see temperatures soar into the lower 80′s. A cold front is expected to bring a chance of showers and/or thunderstorms late Monday night. On Tuesday, we should clear out with more seasonal temperatures.
You may not have realized it but precipitation is running well below normal (over 3 inches). Although we have been seeing rain every few days, the amounts have not been significant. For example, we only picked up a quarter of an inch of rain last night when thundershowers moved through Hampton Roads.
Thanks for reading and have a great day.
