Norfolk woke Sunday to rain and fog, with temperatures around 69 degrees and damp conditions expected to stick around for much of the day. Showers are likely through the afternoon, and the city may top out near 73 degrees. The weather should ease only gradually, with low clouds and wet streets lingering into Sunday evening.
Rain Holds Through The Afternoon
The National Weather Service puts the chance of rain at about 60% Sunday, with light north winds and rainfall totals potentially reaching a quarter-inch to half-inch. Hourly forecasts keep shower chances near 50% to 60% from the morning into midafternoon before activity gradually tapers later in the day. Fog, low clouds and occasional heavier showers could make for a slower Sunday morning, though no watches, warnings or advisories are posted.
The latest outlook is less of a washout than the wetter weekend forecast published Saturday, but it is still a poor bet for outdoor plans. Hoodline's earlier forecast had called for a more widespread Sunday soaking, while the newest update trims expected rain coverage and intensity.
Monday Starts The Dry Reset
Showers could linger before midnight Sunday, then Monday looks mostly cloudy and mainly dry with a high near 73 degrees. North winds will increase to 6 to 9 mph during the day, while Monday night turns mostly clear and cooler with a low around 57.
Sunny Stretch Takes Over
Tuesday should feel like the week's most autumnal day, with sunny skies and a high near 67 degrees before temperatures dip to about 53 overnight. Sunshine and mild conditions return Wednesday through Friday, with highs near 73, 76 and 75 degrees respectively. Saturday brings only a slight chance of rain showers, mainly during the morning and early afternoon.
