Norfolk is waking to mostly cloudy skies, temperatures in the upper 50s and a damp start Wednesday, but the forecast quickly turns into a much more agreeable late-October stretch. Patchy fog may linger through early morning before giving way to a mostly dry afternoon with a high near 68.
Fog Fades As Northeast Winds Pick Up
A special weather statement remains in effect through 9 a.m. Wednesday for fog across southern and interior Southeast Virginia and northeastern North Carolina, according to the National Weather Service in Wakefield. Visibility could be reduced in some areas during the morning commute, so drivers should allow extra time and use low beams.
Clouds will break at times Wednesday, with northeast winds increasing to 6 to 10 mph. Wednesday night stays mostly cloudy with a low around 58, but rain chances remain very low.
Warmup Arrives Thursday And Friday
Thursday brings mostly sunny skies and a high near 72, followed by a sunny Friday topping out around 75. Both days look dry, with light winds and a noticeable warmup after Wednesday's cooler start.
Halloween Forecast Looks Dry And Comfortable
Saturday, Halloween, should be partly sunny with a high near 66 and northeast winds around 10 mph. Saturday night will be mostly cloudy with a low around 55, but the forecast stays dry — good news for anyone making the neighborhood rounds in costume.
Rain Chances Return Next Week
Sunday remains mild and partly sunny with a high near 70. A slight chance of showers arrives after 1 a.m. Monday, followed by a 40% chance of rain showers Monday and additional shower chances Tuesday.
