Synopsis -
winds will be mostly light and variable through much of the period. The main exception will be along nearshore waters out to 20 or 30 nautical miles where developing seabreezes each afternoon will bring onshore flow around 10 knots, gusting to 15 knots, each afternoon. Most shower and storm chances should remain overland but some storm activity could become more common early next week in the morning and early afternoon hours.

Issued at 152 PM EDT Thu May 22 2025
For the latest NE FL and SE GA Daily Key Messages please visit: https:// www.weather.gov/media/jax/briefings/nws-jax-briefing.pdf
A mostly dry westerly steering flow is expected in the near term through Friday. A few light showers will be possible across inland NE FL to the south of Gainesville as this flow pushes some mid level moisture into the region, otherwise abundant high clouds this afternoon and evening will exit the region to the SE later tonight as clear skies develop. The drier airmass and clearing skies will support low temps in the lower 60s inland areas, with upper 60s/near 70F along the Atlantic Coast. Not much fog expected in the drier airmass except for some very patchy/shallow fog possible over inland areas just before sunrise Friday morning.
Drier airmass will support mostly sunny skies on Friday with the westerly steering flow bringing a return to above normal temps with highs in the lower to middle 90s inland, while an East Coast sea breeze will press inland to the I-95/US-17 corridors with highs in the upper 80s/near 90F along the Atlantic Coast. Not enough moisture to support any convection along the East Coast sea breeze.
SHORT TERM
(Friday Night through Sunday)
Issued at 152 PM EDT Thu May 22 2025
Prevailing flow will shift to become more out of the south and southwest by the end of the weekend as high pressure to the north moves off into the Atlantic with high pressure ridging extending in from out of the east shifting its way northward by Sunday.
Chances for diurnal convection will increase by the end of the weekend as PWAT values over northeast Florida rises to 2 inches and higher. High temperatures will reach up into the lower to mid 90s this weekend with overnight low temperatures dropping down into the mid to upper 60s for inland areas and in the lower 70s for coastal areas and along the St Johns River. Heat index values will reach values of over 100 degrees for portions of northeast Florida on Sunday.
LONG TERM
(Monday through next Thursday)
Issued at 152 PM EDT Thu May 22 2025
Convection is expected to become more widespread by midweek as a frontal boundary presses down from out of the north and northwest as a result of an upper level low situated to the north over the Great Lakes area. Weak upper level shortwaves moving across the region during the latter part of this period will act to enhance the development of showers and storms over the forecast area.
Temperatures will remain above the seasonal average through the period with temps beginning to drop to near normal values after midweek.
AVIATION
(18Z TAFS)
Issued at 1243 PM EDT Thu May 22 2025
VFR conds are expected through the period, except for the usual patchy MVFR fog at VQQ from 07-11Z. Winds at 8-10 knots this afternoon will become light/near calm tonight under mostly clear skies.
MARINE
Issued at 152 PM EDT Thu May 22 2025
Secondary dry frontal boundary pushes southward into the local waters tonight and stalls on Friday. Weak high pressure center builds north of the waters on Saturday, then moves east of the waters Sunday into early next week. Daily sea breezes are expected along the Atlantic Coast. Small craft advisory conditions are not expected through the holiday weekend.
Rip Currents: Low Risk to marginally Moderate Risk of Rips through the holiday weekend as weak pressure pattern sets up with daily sea breeze development along the Atlantic Coast which will keep surf/breakers in the 1-2 ft range.
