Heat and Humidity Build as Showers Return This Weekend

Heat advisories possible as temperatures soar into early next week

One lone thunderstorm is moving over Williamsburg, GA and will meander over the swamp. The storm will wind down over the next hour or two as it slowly drifts east.

A similar pattern continues through Friday with increasing rain chances this weekend.

The Gulf breeze remains the dominant feature through the weekend, pinning the Atlantic breeze closer to I-95 and the beaches. Locally heavy rainfall, gusty wind and frequent lightning will be the main hazards.
