Saturday storms
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – A hot and humid pattern will continue across the area, with afternoon temperatures reaching the lower 90s and heat indexes climbing as high as 102 to 107 degrees through Monday.
Numerous thunderstorms are expected this afternoon and evening. While most storms will be scattered, stronger storms are possible near the I-95 corridor and eastern areas, where storms may produce 40–50 mph wind gusts, frequent lightning and heavy downpours. Localized flooding will be a hazard today.
Storm chances will continue from Sunday through Wednesday, mainly during the afternoon and evening. Most storms should weaken later tonight, with only a few sprinkles possible around midnight.
At area beaches, the rip-current risk will remain moderate through Monday. The risk could become high from Tuesday through Thursday as breezy onshore winds develop. Swimmers should stay near lifeguards, heed beach warnings and avoid entering the water when conditions deteriorate.
