Rain and Thunderstorms Linger Through Wednesday

Normal summer rain chances return by Thursday as heat persists

. (.)

The Gulf sea breeze will head offshore, pushing gusty thunderstorms along the way.

A line of thunderstorms is sweeping across northeast Florida and will move over the Atlantic by 4 - 5 p.m. Light rain with embedded thunderstorms will be possible across northeast Florida and southeast Georgia through around 7 - 8 p.m.

A similar summertime pattern will continue through Wednesday as the southwest wind and a lingering frontal boundary bring rounds of rain and thunderstorms, some locally heavy.

Rain chances will return to our normal summer levels of 20 - 30 percent Thursday and Friday as the heat and humidity continue.

Tonight: Showers with thunderstorms through early evening, with light rain through 7 - 8 p.m. Partial clearing late.

Tuesday: Afternoon showers and thunderstorms will start as early as noon near and along I-75 and then spread east through early evening, with a 70 - 80 percent chance. Locally heavy rain, gusty winds, and lightning will be the main hazards. Lows in the 70s. Afternoon highs in the 80s and low 90s. Wind: SW 5-15 mph.
