From Kemps River to Cape Henry: News, Lore, and Local Happenings

This week on Tidewater Talk, we’re covering everything from pirate legends to real headlines and a classic Tidewater weather swing.

We start with a tough story out of Virginia Beach, where multiple people were injured in a shooting at a car meet near Kempsville. What we know so far and what it says about what’s been happening locally.

Then in Strange and Odd, Co takes us back to the early 1700s and the legend of Blackbeard. From Cape Henry to First Landing State Park, we talk buried treasure, pirate signals, and the claim that his story still lingers right here in Hampton Roads.

For weather, we’re back in that familiar Tidewater pattern, chilly start, then a quick warm-up into the 70s before rain moves in Friday and temps drop again for the weekend.

Plus, local tips including Ainsley’s Angels Heart & Soul 5K, Equi-Kids painting with horses, a horror and pop culture con in Norfolk, and a nighttime flashlight egg hunt in Williamsburg.

If you’re in Coastal Virginia, this is your weekly mix of local news, local stories, and a little bit of the strange side of Tidewater.

Stay safe, stay curious, and we’ll see you out there.
