But hold onto your board shorts because we've got a moderate rip current risk that demands your full attention. These sneaky underwater currents are no joke, so stay alert and swim smart. The water's sitting pretty in the lower 70s - perfect for catching some waves or cooling off.
Expect a mostly sunny morning that'll transform into a partly cloudy afternoon with a chance of pop-up thunderstorms. The UV index is cranking up to very high, so slather on that sunscreen unless you want to look like a lobster. Winds will start northwest around 10 mph and kick up to a westerly 15 mph later.
Tide lovers, mark your calendars. Vilano Beach hits high tide at 8:21 AM, while Jacksonville Beach peaks at 7:58 AM. Low tide rolls in around 2 PM for most beaches.
Saturday brings a slightly calmer scene - surf dropping to 2 to 3 feet with zero thunderstorm potential. Temperatures will cool down to the lower 70s, and those northwest winds will dance around 10 to 15 mph.
Looking ahead, Sunday and Monday promise sunny skies with minimal surf and temperatures climbing back into the 70s and 80s. Whether you're a hardcore surfer or just looking to soak up some rays, this weekend's got something for everyone.
Catch those waves, stay safe, and enjoy the beach!
