Increasing rainfall through the weekend – Action News Jax

There is a very high risk of rip currents on the beaches in this area, so it is recommended to avoid the water.

It will be hotter over the weekend, but there will still be isolated heavy rain showers and thunderstorms.

Temperatures will reach just under 30 degrees on Saturday and between 35 and 35 degrees on Sunday.

There is a low pressure system in the tropics a few hundred miles east of Florida. It will arrive near northeast Florida and southeast Georgia around noon Friday, bringing heavy rains and gusty winds.

There is a small chance that this will intensify, but it cannot be ruled out that it could quickly develop into a low pressure system or possibly a low intensity tropical storm. This does not change the First Alert Forecast in any way.
