Sunday’s strong to severe storms will impact Southeast Georgia, Northeast Florida


JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – A strong cold front is moving west to east from the lower Mississippi Valley and will reach our area on Sunday.

Ahead of it, our Sunday will start off windy and with unusually warm conditions during the day. South winds will run 15–25 mph, with gusts up to 40-45 mph. The National Weather Service could issue a wind advisory. The Storm Prediction Center has placed the area in a Marginal to Slight Risk for severe storms.

Sunday headlines

By early to mid-afternoon, beginning after 1 p.m., a main line of storms is expected to move into western areas and push east through the evening. Some scattered storms could pop up ahead of the main line. As the storms organize, a few could produce damaging wind gusts, and there’s a small chance of an isolated tornado, especially from inland Northeast Florida into inland Southeast Georgia.
