A wet and unsettled pattern continues across Northeast Florida and Southeast Georgia as deep tropical moisture keeps rain chances elevated through the end of the week and into the holiday weekend.<\/p>\n
Today will be mostly cloudy, breezy and humid with scattered showers early, then a better chance for showers and storms after 10 a.m. <\/p>\n
Highs climb near 89, but it will feel closer to 102 at times. <\/p>\n
Rain coverage increases again Friday and Saturday, especially during the afternoon and evening hours, with highs in the low 90s and heat index values up to around 106 Friday.<\/p>\n
The big headline is beneficial rainfall, but some downpours could be heavy at times. <\/p>\n
Most neighborhoods can expect around a quarter inch to just over an inch of rain through Friday night, but inland northeast Florida could see locally higher totals of 3 to 4 inches. <\/p>\n
That means slick roads, ponding, and localized flooding will be possible, especially in poor drainage and low-lying areas.<\/p>\n
Beach conditions remain rough with a high risk of rip currents along the Atlantic coast, so swimming is not advised unless you are near a lifeguard. The Labor Day forecast stays stormy with rain chances near 80%, so keep the umbrella close and have an indoor backup plan<\/p>\n
