– Jacksonville is waking up to clear skies and warm temperatures, with early morning conditions looking good for anyone hoping to get outside before it heats up.
The coast looks to remain mostly dry through the evening, especially for St. Johns County, where showers are only expected to be isolated and light.
If you’re planning to head out for fireworks, the forecast shows the best chance for scattered rain will be further west and south, away from the beaches and downtown.
Most showers should taper off by about 8 p.m. or 9 p.m., letting folks enjoy fireworks displays with minimal weather worries.
With temperatures in the low 90s and humidity making it feel even warmer, those venturing outdoors are encouraged to stay hydrated and take precautions.

I’m advising viewers to keep an eye on a stalled front and a developing low that could bring additional showers through Saturday and Sunday.
There’s a 40% to 60% chance that this system could turn tropical, but current forecasts from Exact Track 4D point to the highest development chance near the Georgia coastline, rather than directly over Jacksonville.
Even if no significant tropical formation happens, the influence of this system means on-and-off showers are expected, mainly pushing heavier rain further inland and south.
Most in Jacksonville metro and on the coast can count on only brief passing showers, with rainfall totals remaining low during the main holiday event hours.
After the weekend, Jacksonville is expected to see more classic summer weather.
The 7-day forecast from The Weather Authority and Exact Track 4D shows daily highs ranging from 88 degrees to 94 degrees, with overnight lows in the low to mid-70s.
Scattered afternoon showers are expected each day, but most mornings should remain dry and pleasant—perfect for early walks or catching a sunrise by the beach.
As always, stay tuned to News4JAX for the latest radar and alerts if conditions change, especially as the tropics continue to develop.
