Chief Meteorologist Patrick Rockey’s First Warning Forecast
Talk about your whiplash weather! Some of us made it into the 80s on Monday and some of us will wake up with frost by Wednesday morning.
A big chunk of the area including Chesapeake and Suffolk is under a frost advisory.
Many of us will wake up to temperatures well down into the 30s. Be sure to leave yourself time to scrape a little frost off the windshield!
And despite plenty of sunshine, we will only climb into the upper 50s to around 60 degrees by Wednesday afternoon.
But then we start a slow warming trend. Expect more sunshine on Thursday with highs climbing into the mid 60s.
More sunshine awaits us on Friday with high temperatures a few degrees warmer.
And it looks like we will kick off the weekend with terrific weather!
Saturday will bring us plenty of sunshine with high temperatures right around 70°.
The temperature won’t change much on Sunday, but the second half of the weekend will bring more clouds and a slight chance for a shower.
The forecast is much the same on Monday with clouds and a few spotty showers.
But by next Tuesday above-normal temperatures return with highs in the mid 70s.
And the longer range forecast is for warmer than normal conditions for the rest of October.
