🌡 The weather here, in general
Newport News has four clear seasons. July highs average 88°F and January lows average 35°F.
The thermometer rarely spikes — only about 22 days a year top 90°F — but it hardly needs to. Summer sits in the mid-eighties for months at a stretch, and with humidity on top of it the heat index runs well above what the air temperature suggests.
Snow shows up most years — about 6 inches — but rarely in quantity. 26 freezing nights a year matter more, because the risk here is ice rather than depth.
Rainfall averages about 48 inches a year, wettest in September and driest in November.
