A few afternoon showers and storms will develop near or after 2 p.m. and slowly drift inland through the late afternoon and early evening. Afternoon showers and storms will shift inland each day through July 4.

Heat will build to the mid to upper 90s by the weekend with inland afternoon storms.

As for the tropics, Hurricane Beryl is a Category 4 major hurricane with winds up to 145 mph. It’s moving west/northwest through the Central Caribbean Sea this morning and will approach Jamacia today with some weakening forecast as wind shear impacts the storm.

Beryl is expected to stay in the Caribbean and head to the Yucatan Peninsula by Friday while weakening some more. There will be no local impacts from Beryl.

There’s a tropical wave behind Beryl that looks less likely to develop now, but the First Alert Weather Team will track it as it brings gusty wind and rain to the Lesser Antilles today.

Action News Jax’s First Alert Weather Team will continue to monitor the forecast and will bring you updates throughout the day.
