Knee surgery for Va. Beach’s Williams

Ten-year WNBA player Elizabeth Williams, who grew up in Virginia Beach, will undergo surgery for a torn meniscus she suffered June 6 while playing for the Chicago Sky against the Washington Mystics. She’ll be having surgery on her knee to repair it.

Williams was averaging 10 points, seven rebounds and 1.7 blocks per game through nine contests. She is in her second year with the Sky after starring for Princess Anne High and Duke, from where the Connecticut Sun chose her No. 4 overall in the 2015 WNBA draft. Williams played one year for the Sun, six for the Atlanta Dream and one for the Mystics before going to the Sky.

Storm Team4 Forecast: Nice day ahead with chance for afternoon showers


4 things to know about the weather:

  1. A much more comfortable day is ahead with highs only in the lower to middle 80s across the DMV.
  2. Most of the day will be dry, but a few spotty showers or thunderstorms could pop up during the afternoon. 
  3. Humidity will be a tad lower than recent days thanks to an easterly breeze and slightly drier air moving into the region. 
  4. Monday looks even better with comfortable temperatures, lower humidity before hotter weather returns later in the week.

A welcome change is finally settling into the DMV. Sunday won’t be perfect with some clouds around and the chance for some showers, but most areas should stay dry. Cooler temps than we’ve been used to lately, with afternoon highs staying in the 80s.

Great days to start the week as Monday and Tuesday are shaping up to be comfortably warm with noticeably lower humidity (thank goodness) bonus days for summer. Enjoy it while it lasts because heat and humidity arrive by Wednesday with temperatures climbing back into the 90s and continuing to build late in the week.
