First Alert Weather: Breezy with rounds of quick showers, dangerous conditions at the beach

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Here’s what the First Alert Weather Team said you can expect for the First Alert Weather forecast:

  • Breezy, onshore winds will continue through early next week 
  • A few quick-moving showers will continue to move onshore through Saturday evening. 
  • Heavy rain at times on Sunday. It’ll remain breezy and mostly cloudy. 
  • DANGEROUS conditions will continue through Monday at the beaches. HIGH rip current risk, high surf advisories, and small craft advisories remain in place.
  • A few thunderstorms will be possible on Sunday as well. 
  • Higher tides, thanks to the persistent onshore winds, will cause moderate flooding at the coast and along the St. Johns River basin. Water will be 2-3 feet above normally dry ground. 
  • This pattern will stick around through Monday (breezy, quick-moving showers). 
  • The cloud cover, onshore winds, and scattered showers will keep temperatures slightly cooler and in the low 80s. 
  • We will finally see a break in this pattern by the middle of the week. Winds will weaken by Wednesday. We will only see a few showers on Tuesday and should remain dry on Wednesday. 
  • Onshore winds pick up once again on Thursday and into next weekend with scattered showers back in the forecast. quick-moving
