The weekend will start on a mild but wet note across central Virginia. An approaching cold front will produce gusty south-southwest breezes that will boost temperatures into the upper 70s. However, added moisture will mean numerous showers and potentially a thunderstorm or two. Our computer data is suggesting 1/2" or more of rain is possible this afternoon and evening. As the front exits the coast tonight, high pressure will build over the Mid-Atlantic, bringing sunshine back into the picture tomorrow. Temperatures will be cooler to finish the weekend, averaging in the mid 60s for daytime highs.
As the new week begins, that area of high pressure should stay in control, with more sunshine and afternoon temperatures in the mid 60s Monday. A developing coastal front may bring some showers Tuesday, but drier weather should sneak back into the area Wednesday and Thursday. One of our more reliable computer models suggests the potential for an area of low pressure to ride up along the front, potentially hanging around into Wednesday. So there's the possibility the drier air may be delayed just a bit. The rest of the week should produce seasonal temperatures, which typically average in the 60s during the day and 40s at night.
