Chief Meteorologist Patrick Rockey’s First Warning Forecast
It looks like it’s going to be a stormy into the work week. But the weekend is looking dry and very pleasant!
All of Hampton Roads is under a heightened risk for severe weather for Friday afternoon.
The biggest threat will be on the peninsula’s and the Eastern shore.
Our top two concerns are storms that produce damaging straight line wind gusts, and large hail. We also may see downpours that could cause some minor flooding.
For most of us, the storms should be gone by 9 PM and then some pretty great weather moves in for Father’s Day weekend!
We are expecting plenty of sunshine on both Saturday and Sunday.
Saturday is looking like the milder of the two days. But both days should be pretty comfortable.
Enjoy the dry weather while it lasts because we move into a stormy stretch of weather for the work week.
Showers and the storms are looking possible by Monday afternoon as a frontal boundary stalls across the region.
Storms are likely along that front, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.
When all is said and done it looks like we will pick up several inches of rain next week. Stay tuned.
