- A Wind Advisory is in effect for coastal Duval and St. Johns counties until 5 p.m. Monday. Winds are occasionally gusting above 30 mph.
- The combined gusty winds and wind direction from the northeast is producing rough and dangerous seas & surf. Wave heights this morning at offshore buoys (7-8 ft.) are higher than they were with Hurricane Erin’s closest approach! Thus, a high risk of rip currents is in effect at all local beaches.
- The onshore wind is producing occasional showers moving inland, most frequently south of Jacksonville. This will continue at times through Labor Day with plenty of clouds.
- North of Jacksonville and especially into Georgia, there will be more sunshine making for a pleasant holiday.
- Temperatures area-wide today will be cooler than average in the 80s.
- We gradually warm up through this week, back into the 90s by Friday.
