Virginia is in for a weather rollercoaster this week. Tuesday is Election Day, and it's going to be a cool one. Mornings will start off in the 40s, but by afternoon, temperatures will climb into the 60s. Expect some clouds and a breezy northwest wind. Nighttime will bring a dry, chilly vibe with temperatures dropping into the 30s and 40s. The nearly full moon will be visible, so that's a plus.

The good news is that Wednesday will be warmer. After a cold start, temperatures will shoot up to the low to mid 70s by afternoon. That's about 10 degrees hotter than usual! Southerly breezes will pick up, and the evening will stay mild with temperatures in the 60s. The full moon will be visible again, so stargazers will have a great view.

But don't get too comfortable. Thursday will bring cooler, more typical fall weather with highs around 60 degrees. It's the perfect time to enjoy the fall foliage, as the colors have reached their peak in the D. C. area.

Friday will be a mix of passing clouds and mid-60s temperatures in the afternoon. It's a good idea to dress in layers, as the weather can change quickly. Stay prepared and enjoy the week's weather shifts.
