A Nor’easter located off the coast will linger for several days, bringing a prolonged period of northeast winds and shallow tidal flooding, according to NBC12.

This weather pattern will keep Richmond and surrounding areas cool, dry, and mostly sunny throughout the week, with no rain expected.

Tuesday and Wednesday will be sunny and breezy with wind gusts of 20 to 25 mph, and highs in the 60s and 70s. Temperatures will gradually cool into the 60s by the weekend.

Lows will dip into the 30s and 40s overnight, with some patchy frost possible on Sunday morning. The forecast calls for mostly sunny skies through Monday, with highs returning to the low 70s.

Residents are encouraged to stay aware of tidal flooding impacts along coastal areas and can get the latest updates through the 12 On Your Side First Alert Weather app, available in the Apple Store and Google Play.

This weather pattern is expected to continue through early next week, maintaining dry and cool conditions in the Richmond area.
