JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – After a nice break from the high humidity and rain on Saturday, the stickiness, high heat, and rainy conditions return on Sunday.

Expect temperatures to rise into the mid-90s for most of the area, including Southeast Georgia which will see the showers first around dinnertime as they drop in from the Northwest. Some isolated storms can’t be ruled out, along with heavy downpours and gusty winds at times. Northeast Flordia rain will be scattered throughout the late afternoon into the evening through overnight hours.

Sunday’s “feels like” temperatures will be between 100 & 107.

Monday will bring more widespread showers and thunderstorms throughout the afternoon and the evening commute. Temperatures continue to be hot and humid with the “feels like” temperature closer to heat advisory levels (108+).

Hazards: Rip Current Risk remains high throughout Sunday

The full moon is coming on Monday. The supermoon, blue moon, and sturgeon moon are full of beauty! The supermoon is when the Earth is slightly closer to the moon, making it seem closer and brighter. According to NASA, a blue moon happens once every two or three years on average, but a blue moon that’s also a supermoon is uncommon. A sturgeon moon is the Native American name for August’s full moon.
