Action News Jax Chief Meteorologist Mike Buresh says humidity gradually increases this weekend. Saturday starts off in the 60s. Skies will be partly sunny to partly cloudy with highs in the mid-80s. A few showers and possibly a thunderstorm will develop, especially in the afternoon.
Sunday features an isolated shower or storm. However, Buresh says long parts of the weekend will be dry and several neighborhoods may see no rain.
We stay warm and humid into next week with temperatures in the upper 80s. Our next chance for more scattered thunderstorms is Tuesday.
