I know there has been some issues in VA about non resident permits lately. Has that issue been resolved? Is my Pa permit valid or not in VA? Can I carry in my car with out a permit? I know OC is legal in VA but can I OC in my car?

Your PA permit/license is recognized by Virginia.

Check the weather report - you might want to avoid the lower topographical locations.

Actually, I'm told that the latest tropical storm will have minimal impact on VB.

Virginia Beach, Va.
weather aside, there are no "bad" parts of Va Beach to avoid. There are the typical anti-gun places (most malls, TGI Fridays, Buffalo Wild Wings). Few if any will notice let alone react to an OC'd fire arm. I have had many more comments/thanks for exercising my second amendment rights than I have had people commenting negatively on my choosing to carry.
