.DISCUSSION...

The sea breeze has moved west of the Fernandina Beach area this afternoon,
and therefore fair and mild conditions will be expected for the rest of
the evening. A disturbance passing overhead aloft overnight tonight and
through Saturday will result in some scattered showers and a few thunderstorms,
though the highest chance of this looks to be further inland. Overall,
expecting about a 10-15% chance of showers and t`storms for the Fernandina
Beach area Saturday, with the best chance timing being in the afternoon as
the sea breeze moves inland. However, confidence is lower than usual for
this type of scenario due to several factors in play.
