NORFOLK, Va. — UPDATE: The Weather Alert Day ended at 10 p.m., although some showers and storms may linger later into the evening.
A Weather Alert Day was declared for possible strong to severe storms Monday afternoon and early evening.
A cold front will slowly cross the Hampton Roads region during the evening. Its interaction with an increasingly unstable air mass will trigger isolated strong to severe thunderstorms.
NOAA's Storm Prediction Center has the entire 13News Now region under a Marginal (Level 1) Risk.
The main hazards in any storms that do become severe look to be gusty, damaging winds and locally heavy rain. The most likely time for the storms across the region will be between 3 p.m. and 9 p.m.
Once the front has cleared the region, and the storms move out this evening, much nicer weather will settle into the region for the remainder of the week.
