- A lifting warm front and moisture due to Hurricane Isaias passing
west of the area will bring waves of moderate to heavy rainfall
across areas of Northeast Florida today into this evening.
Several inches of rain from the last several days will make for
saturated soils and additional rainfall amounts of 1 to 3 inches
with locally higher amounts may lead to flash flooding. The heavy
rainfall may combine with higher than normal tidal levels and may
worsen flood problems in some St. Johns River locations.
