Minor Coastal Flooding
Higher astronomical tides and an increase in breezy northeasterly winds will increase tidal levels to the point of minor coastal flooding. The flooding is expected Monday through next week. Areas of impact will be the coast, intercoastal and St Johns Basin.
SATURDAY FORECAST
Low level onshore flow of air and convergence is causing isolated to scattered rain and storms along I-95 and overall NE Florida. More rain is expected in counties south of I-10. Rain chances and convection drop after sunset. However, rain chances pick up on Sunday shortly after sunrise at 7:07 AM.

TRACKING THE TROPICS
There is a tropical wave in the Central Atlantic producing storms. There is a low chance that this disturbance will become a tropical depression. The wave is expected to move toward the Lesser Antilles by the middle of next week. There is only a 20 percent chance of development over the next two to seven days.
