JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Here’s what the First Alert Weather Team said you can expect for the forecast:
- A band of heavy storms will move north/northeast across the area with partly cloudy skies overnight Wednesday into Thursday.
- Winds will blow off the Atlantic Thursday through Saturday, which will moderate temps a bit. Highs will be in the 80s at the beaches to low 90s inland with mostly scattered showers and a few storms mainly inland. The best chance for showers and storms along the I-95 corridor will be mid-day Thursday, shifting well inland to the west by the late afternoon hours.
- A few scattered afternoon storms will return to the entire area Sunday into early next week.
TROPICS: There are no areas of concern across the Atlantic. Next name: “Cristobal”. A weak low pressure may try to develop northeast of Florida through the weekend, but significant tropical development is not expected. Some long-range models indicate a possible longer track system moving across the Atlantic over the next couple of weeks. Plenty of time to watch/track/monitor.
