WX Outlook: Monday...

Weather Underground

"Weather forecast for tonight: dark. Continued dark overnight, with widely scattered light by morning."
George Carlin


...Scattered To Numerous Storms This Afternoon And Heat Indices 100 To 103 Inland Areas This Afternoon...

Today: Partly cloudy with chance of showers and thunderstorms in the morning, then mostly cloudy with showers and thunderstorms likely in the afternoon. Highs in the lower 90s. Southeast winds 5 to 10 mph. Chance of rain 70 %.

Tonight: Partly cloudy. A 20 % chance of showers and thunderstorms in the evening. Lows in the lower 70s. East winds 5 mph in the evening becoming light.

High temperatures in the lower to mid 90s inland will push heat indices again to 100 to 103 degrees this afternoon. Exercise extreme caution when outdoors.

Scattered to numerous storms are expected to develop today mainly during the afternoon and evening as the sea breezes begin to develop and progress inland. Some storms may be strong and produce frequent cloud to ground lightning, strong and gusty winds and locally heavy rainfall of over 2 inches. This heavy rainfall may cause local flooding of low lying or poor drainage areas.

Today's pollen level: 0.8-Low (on a scale of 1to12): predominate pollen: Grass and Oak.

Forecast Details: afternoon convection will be widespread, initiating along the sea breezes and also south of weakening frontal boundary to the north and then overspreading the area as the sea breezes/outflows interact. Middle level impulses rotating around the upper high will also help enhance activity. Main concerns will be lighting and locally heavy rain of 2+ inches. Have gone with likely probability of precipitation most areas today. Have kept probability of precipitation along most immediate coastal areas around 50% but a few storms may even make it to the coast late this afternoon/evening especially JAX north.

Spotters are requested to Self-Activate if Warnings are issued.
