FIRST ALERT WEATHER: Afternoon storms continue

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Tracking a dry morning commute for Jacksonville.

  • Highs today will be in the lower 90s inland and upper 80s along the coast.
  • Scattered showers and storms will develop between 2 p.m. and 5 p.m. this afternoon.
  • Heavy rain and lightning are the primary threats.
  • A few showers are possible along the coast tomorrow and Friday morning.
  • Showers and storms will continue to develop and spread inland through the afternoon on Thursday.
  • Highs go down to the upper 80s tomorrow.

TROPICS:

  • (1) tropical storm “Dexter” is over the open N. Atlantic with no impact to land areas…
  • (2) low pressure is forecast to develop east & northeast of Jacksonville by Friday then move north/northwest into the Carolina’s over the weekend. It doesn’t appear this will be a strong system but will produce rip currents at the beaches & pockets of heavy rain – especially for the Carolina’s to Virginia.
  • (3) a tropical wave over the far East Atlantic has long term potential while moving some semblance of west. A long ways out but something to carefully track over the next 10-14 days.
  • Always more: “Talking the Tropics With Mike”.
