Tracking a few showers on Monday….As we move through our Monday, some of us could see a few showers by afternoon and evening, all courtesy of a developing area of low pressure off the coast of Florida. As the low moves north on Monday, we’ll see a good deal of cloud cover moving in. However, there is still some uncertainty on how close this low will track toward our coast.  If it tracks closer to us, we’ll see a good chance of rain. If it tracks out to sea, we won’t see as much rain on Monday. For now, we’ll keep rain chances around 40 percent, especially for Southside Hampton Roads and NE North Carolina. Rain chances will be slightly lower for the Peninsulas and the Eastern Shore for now. Otherwise, expect more clouds than sun with highs in the mid 50s.  Most areas will be dry by Tuesday with high temperatures in the mid 50s. Then, we’re expecting much warmer weather to move in. Highs will climb through the 60s by the end of the week into next weekend.

Tonight: Partly Cloudy. Chilly. Overnight low temperatures in the upper 30s and lower 40s. Winds: NW 5-10 mph.

Monday: More Clouds Than Sun. Showers Possible (30-40%). High temperatures in the mid 50s. Winds: NW-N 5-10 mph.

Tuesday: Mostly Sunny and Mild. High temperatures in the mid 50s. Winds: N 5-10 mph.
