JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – If you like low 80s and sunshine, today is your day.
After a foggy start for some inland areas, mostly sunny skies will dominate. Windy conditions from the east will increase throughout the day into the mid-teens, with gusts in the low 20 mph range.
These high winds will keep beachgoers out of the water as a High Rip Current risk continues through Sunday into early Monday morning. Rough, dangerous surf from southeast Georgia through northeast Florida can sweep even the strongest swimmers away from shore.
Fire danger continues for our region, as well. With low relative humidity levels in the 30% range, dry conditions persist. Factor in the winds, and all it takes is one spark for a brush fire to start. No unnecessary burning is key to containing fires.
Dry and unseasonably warm weather continues into the work/school week, with the next chance of a cool down coming later in the week.
