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

  • Isolated mainly inland showers and storms into early this evening, but most areas stay dry with clearing skies overnight.
  • Thursday through Friday into the weekend will be hot & humid with better chances for a few afternoon and evening showers and storms. Highs will top out near or a little above 90.
  • Winds will become more onshore – off the Atlantic – for early next week, dropping temperatures a bit along with a few showers streaming inland off the ocean. Highs will be in the 80s.

Tropics

  • Wave ’93-L’ has just been upgraded to Tropical Storm Humberto over the Central Atlantic. It looks like this one stays out to sea but may impact Bermuda next week.
  • Gabrielle is still a hurricane and will cross the islands of the Azores Thursday before becoming post-tropical.
  • Wave ’94-L’ is near Puerto Rico and currently disorganized. Slow development is possible and a tropical storm may eventually develop over the weekend or early next week over or near the Bahamas. Local impacts *appear* to be minor if at all, though certainly subject to change
  • “Imelda” and “Jerry” are the next 2 names on the Atlantic list.
  • Always more: “Talking the Tropics With Mike”.
