Record Low Maximum

October 17th, 2009 at 11:38 pm by Cheryl Nelson under Weather

If you thought it was unusually chilly today, you’re exactly right!  A record low maximum of 50 degrees was set at Norfolk International Airport today.  The average high temperature for this time of the year is around 70 degrees.  Expect more of the same on Sunday: clouds, drizzle, a few showers, and highs in the 50s.  It will also be breezy with northerly winds between 10-25 mph.  Strong northerly winds combined with high astronomical tides will lead to minor to moderate tidal flooding during high tide on Sunday.  High tide will be between 8 AM and 10 AM.  Move your car if you live in a low-lying flood prone area.

Stay warm!

    Do you guys think this is a sign of things to come this winter? I’ve seen some long range forcasts that suggest we are going to have a potentialy snowy winter (compared to normal)here in the mid Atlantic. What is your take? Do you folks dare to give a long range winter forcast???? Would love to hear what you have to say! :) Bryan on the island, Kill Devil Hills (Colington Island)
