TS Elsa Update
National Weather Service Jacksonville has updated our daily weather briefing to highlight potential impacts from Tropical Storm Elsa: https://www.weather.gov/media/jax/briefings/nws-jax-briefing.pdf
We will update the briefing on a regular basis, so please check the briefing when you need the latest local intel.
Key Points:
- Heavy rainfall and localized flooding will be possible today through mid-week mainly for areas along and south of the FL-GA line.
- The Sante Fe River remains in Minor Flood Stage with St. Marys rising into Minor Stage later today. We’re also closely monitoring the Black Creek river basin.
- It is still a bit too early to discuss the specific extent of any impacts from Elsa for our area. However, the wet pattern we’re in could enhance the potential for flash, urban and river flooding for mid-week with Elsa’s current forecast track.
- Latest potential timing for impacts from Elsa is Late Tuesday through Wednesday
- Monitor official forecast from the National Hurricane Center & your local NWS Office (be cautious of social media!)
