Here’s what the First Alert Weather Team said you can expect for the First Alert Weather forecast:
Scattered showers & a few t’storms will continue into this evening with a few lingering showers overnight. Have an umbrella handy on the TGIF evening.
Saturday will be mostly cloudy with scattered showers at just about any time along with a few t-storms, especially near & south of I-10. Highs will be in the 80s, though fall into the 70s during rainfall.
More sun for Sunday as winds swing around to out of the east/northeast along with some isolated showers, but plenty of dry hours. Highs in the 80s.
What should be “Imelda” is currently forecast to move east of Florida & Jacksonville Sunday night into Monday. Little impact inland with minor impacts at the beaches in the form of rough seas & surf, gusty breezes & a high rip current risk. Greater impacts for the Carolinas.

Tropics:
Humberto is over the Central Atlantic & becoming a “major” Cat. 3+ hurricane while moving northwest & will stay out to sea.
Wave ’94-L’ is moving toward the Southern Bahamas. Slow development is expected & a tropical storm (Imelda) should eventually develop over the weekend near the Bahamas. The storm should move east of Florida & Jacksonville through early Monday, followed by a possible Carolina landfall later Mon. into Tuesday, when it may be at hurricane strength. Local impacts *appear* to be minor (mainly beaches with rough seas & surf, gusty winds) though certainly subject to change depending on exact track & intensity.
