The Jacksonville Weather Story

Alerts & Climate
Route Shield · Jun–Nov
Hurricanes & Surge Soon
The First Coast takes its hits offshore and sideways: Matthew in 2016 and Irma in 2017 never made landfall here and still put the worst flooding on record into downtown and San Marco.
Warning · Jun–Sep
Lightning & Storms Live
Sea breeze off the Atlantic against the river breeze off the St. Johns — the daily summer storm clock from NWS Jacksonville, plus the spring severe season the peninsula mostly misses.
Services
The St. Johns & King Tides Soon
The river runs north and backs up on a surge, so downtown floods on a full-moon tide with no rain at all — gauges from Racy Point to the Acosta Bridge.
Recreation
Beaches & Rip Currents Soon
Surf, rip currents, UV and water temperature from Fernandina Beach and St. Simons south to Flagler Beach.
Recreation
Heat & Humidity
Heat index and feels-like for a day outdoors, from the Beaches to the Baker County pines.

Climate & Records
Normals, records and long-term trends across all nine counties — and the freezes that reach this far north but stop short of Orlando.
