JACKSONVILLE, Fla. \u2013 If you\u2019ve been enjoying a few dry days, get ready for a change. A high-pressure system has kept us dry, but a new low-pressure system is about to shake things up.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m tracking a 10% chance of rain tomorrow, mostly north of us in Georgia. By Friday, things really start to change in Jacksonville as rain is forecast to move in. The wet weather is expected to stick around through Saturday and Sunday, so keep your umbrellas handy!<\/p>\n

The heaviest rain looks likely on Saturday\u2014our Exact Track 4D radar is already picking up signs of this front and we\u2019ll be keeping a close eye as it approaches.<\/p>\n

If you have weekend plans\u2014like those Jags games or holiday shopping sprees\u2014just know you might need to dodge a few raindrops. If you spot something interesting out there, share your weather photos at SnapJAX<\/a>!<\/p>\n

Current conditions<\/p>\n

This morning we woke up to 53 degrees in Jacksonville with a light north breeze around 3 mph, and it feels like 53. Areas in Georgia are sitting in the 40s, while our coastal spots are enjoying the upper 50s to near 60.<\/p>\n

Radar is showing clear skies for the next couple of days, so today\u2019s a wonderful one to get outside if you\u2019re able. Plan on a high close to 65 degrees for Jacksonville\u2014if you\u2019re on the coast, look for low 60s with double-digit wind gusts. Hourly temperatures won\u2019t reach the 60s until around noon.<\/p>\n

Our average high for this time of year is 70, and we\u2019re not falling too far below that. If you\u2019re heading outdoors, the rip current risk is in the moderate range. Golfers, you\u2019ll have decent weather for your tee times, and for the kids, playground time looks mostly comfy\u2014temps should climb from the upper 40s up to mid-60s.<\/p>\n

Holiday timing and rain deficit<\/p>\n

I know it\u2019s 22 days till Christmas, and everyone\u2019s thinking about shopping, travel, and all that comes with the season. While this burst of rain may not have the best timing for holiday outings or the big Jags game, we actually do need the moisture.<\/p>\n

Jacksonville saw no measurable rain for the entire month of November\u2014something that doesn\u2019t happen often and has left us with a sizeable rainfall deficit. Even with rain on the way, it likely won\u2019t be enough to erase that shortfall, but it\u2019s a start.<\/p>\n
