A front was stalled across NE FL with a meandering coastal low offshore of the local Atlantic coast. Above normal atmospheric moisture, warm temperatures aloft and slow storm motion produced localized heavy rainfall over a diurnally unstable airmass with waves of gusty showers moving onshore. Wind gusts with the coastal low along the local Atlantic coast increased to 40-50 mph after 8 pm on 9/3 through midnight along the Duval County FL coast.
