Unseasonably warm conditions continue under the influence of a dominating upper ridge. Temperatures continue to rise through the 80s and will challenge daily records across the region as peak temps read near 90F (daily records in the climate section below).

Otherwise fair weather reigns across NE FL and SE GA as abnormally warm temperatures drive a stubborn Atlantic sea breeze inland, which should reach the I-95 corridor before dissipating this evening. There is an outside chance of sprinkle north of Jacksonville along the SE GA coast this afternoon as better moisture, characterized by a cumulus Field, exists across GA.

Fair conditions continue into tonight as thin cirrus pushes through the ridge flow and a weakening front approaches from the northwest.
The primary focus tonight and early Saturday will an advective low stratus and fog event emanating from the Big Bend. Areas could become locally dense by sunrise Saturday, particularly across the Suwannee River valley and I-75 corridor, and it may require Dense Fog headlines.
