Winds have been gusting over 40 mph along the coast with soggy conditions in St. Johns County. Showers will expand and track inland covering many areas this evening from Jacksonville down through Clay and Putnam counties.
Rain showers back off tomorrow morning with some spots of drizzle or light showers by Friday evening.
The bigger weather story is the Gulf low that will track over our area on Saturday. Plan on all-day rain. It will start in the morning with spotty light showers before becoming steady by mid-day. Flooding is possible overnight as the rain increases and becomes heavy. 2-4 inches is possible and the high winds will make any outdoor activities nearly impossible during the evening. Winds will gust over 40 mph from the SE causing coastal flooding.
Models are unclear on how soon the rain ends on Sunday. Rain is likely in the morning but may ease up during the afternoon and evening.
Weather normalizes on Monday with dry, chilly, and breezy conditions.
