JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – There is a high risk of rip currents and rough, high surf of 6-8 feet for Northeast Florida as well as Southeast Georgia.
Rip currents are our number one weather-related killer – the currents can sweep even the best of swimmers away from the shore and into deeper water.
Windy and cool today. Wind Advisory in effect along the NE Fl/SE Ga coast...gusts 40 to 45 mph.
Hazardous Boating conditions this weekend. Gale Warning and Small Craft Advisory in effect for the coastal waters through Sunday. #jaxwx#flwx#gawxpic.twitter.com/a5eOysHsn3
The National Weather Service of Jacksonville says there’s a small craft boating advisory in effect because of hazardous boating conditions. Along with the small craft advisory that goes until 5 p.m. Sunday, there is also a High Surf Advisory until 2 p.m.
A much different picture than what we saw last weekend. Photos from our Jacksonville Beach skycam showing crowds gathering at the beach to take advantage of the gorgeous weather last Saturday.
