First Alert Weather: Stormy weather pattern through July Fourth

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

It’s been a stormy afternoon in Duval
Some spots in Western & Eastern Duval have gotten 1-2″ of rain
A few showers continue late afternoon & evening west of I-95 & up in SE GA
It should be a dry night for most with partly cloudy skies
“Most” because we may have an isolated shower push up to I-75 from the Gulf tomorrow morning
Sunday brings more of the same, mainly afternoon showers & storms
Storm threat includes the beaches with southwesterly offshore winds
This pattern continues each day next week
The I-95 corridor out to the beaches will be the spots to watch each day for the strongest storms
It’s early, but it sure looks like there will be storms on July Fourth afternoon

Tropics:

Tropical Depression #2 has formed in the Southern Gulf
It’s tracking toward the Gulf Coast of Central Mexico, away from Florida
If it develops into a Tropical Storm, it will be “Barry,” and it will be short-lived
This is not a concern for Florida or the U.S.
There are no other areas of concern in the tropics
