First Alert Weather: Morning downpours shift inland by the afternoon

Coastal showers in the morning shift well inland by the afternoon First Alert Meteorologist Trevor Gibbs is tracking inland storm chances this afternoon.

Here’s what the First Alert Weather Team said you can expect for the forecast:

  • This morning there are several heavy showers streaming onshore in northern St. Johns, Duval, Nassau, Camden, and Glynn Counties.
  • Rain is briefly heavy, dropping a quick 0.10-0.25″.
  • This activity will diminish later this morning as temperatures heat up into the upper 80s and low 90s today.
  • Afternoon coverage of rain and storms will once again shift inland, well away from the coast today.
  • Onshore winds will keep the rip current risk elevated at the beaches today, but the beaches will see a dry afternoon.
  • Inland downpours will once again be very heavy and could drop a quick 1-2″+ of rain.
  • The weather pattern over the next few days will be fairly similar, with an isolated morning shower and afternoon storms well inland.
  • Coastal communities will not see much rain at all over the next week.

TROPICS:

  • The remnants of Tropical Storm Dolly are bringing rain and wind to the Lesser Antilles and Puerto Rico today.
  • There is a small window near the Bahamas next week where these remnants may try to re-organize, but odds of that happening are low.
  • Weak low pressure in the central Gulf may also slowly develop as it drifts westward, away from our local area.
  • The east Pacific continues to be very busy, typical of El Nino years.
Tracking a few areas in the tropics but no concerns as of now First Alert Meteorologist Trevor Gibbs is tracking the remnants of Tropical Storm Dolly.
