JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — This morning is quiet with temperatures in the 70s and 80s and isolated showers in southeast Georgia.
- High temperatures today will rise into the low-mid 90s with only isolated coverage of showers/storms moving inland by the afternoon.
- High Surf Advisory begins at noon today for all beaches as breakers rise to 5-7 feet today, and 6-9+ feet tomorrow. This comes as Hurricane Erin will pass by hundreds of miles offshore.
- Numerous rip currents are expected up and down the coast through at least Thursday, improving Friday.
- Higher chances of rain return Friday into the weekend.
TROPICS:
- Hurricane Erin remains a major hurricane this morning east of the Bahamas.
- It will move north over the next few days, continuing to push dangerous swells to the southeast U.S. coastline.
- Locally, minor to moderate beach erosion is possible in some places around the times of high tide.
- Higher than normal tides are expected over the next few days, resulting in some minor coastal flooding in the flood-prone tidal locations.
- Behind Erin, two tropical waves have potential for long-term development, but neither currently pose a threat to land.
- The next two names are Fernand (pronounced fair-NAHN) and Gabrielle.
