What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this river flood warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Jacksonville, FL wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Apr 28, 8:32 PM EDT, 0 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Apr 28, 8:32 PM EDT, 0 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Jacksonville FL
832 PM EDT Wed Apr 28 2021

.UPDATE...
Surface ridge will remain across the area tonight with mostly
clear skies. Temperatures will fall into the low to mid 60s with
patchy inland fog possible.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION [715 PM EDT]...

.NEAR TERM [Through Tonight]...

High pressure ridge from the Western Atlantic will linger across
the region tonight and will lead to Mostly Clear skies and near
normal temps with lows in the lower 60s inland and middle 60s
along the coast. Light south flow may lead to some very patchy fog
in some inland locations, but not expecting dense fog at this time.

.SHORT TERM [Thursday Through Friday Night]...

High pressure ridge in place on Thursday will continue above
normal temps and dry weather with highs in the upper 80s to near
90 over inland areas and lower to middle 80s along the coast with
a dominant Gulf Coast Sea breeze as the Atlc Coast sea breeze
remains pinned along the I-95 corridor through the afternoon.
Light southwest flow ahead of the front on Thursday Night will
lead to low stratus and fog development from the NE Gomex that
will track into NE FL and inland SE GA during the overnight hours
with better chances for areas of fog and some locally dense fog
mostly along the I-75 corridor of inland NE FL with overnight lows
mostly in the middle 60s inland and upper 60s coast. Models still
in decent agreement with weakening cool frontal boundary to push
into the region from the Northwest with scattered showers and
isolated storms across Southeast GA during the afternoon with
lower coverage as it reaches the I-10 corridor of North FL by the
evening hours, then basically washes out by the overnight hours
on Friday Night. Models still differ a bit on the amount of
energy, lift and moisture along this feature with the 12Z GFS run
a bit more excited about rainfall chances than the 12Z ECMWF run.
Overall still expect plenty of warmth ahead of this feature with
abundant mid/upper 80s inland getting pushed all the way to the
Atlc Beaches in the westerly flow ahead of the front and even some
near 90 degree readings from JAX southward along the I-95 and US
301 highway corridors due to the late arrival of the frontal
boundary and lack of much shower activity south of the JAX area on
Friday Evening. Some cooling back into the lower 60s across
inland SE GA Friday Night with mid/upper 60s elsewhere by Sat
Morning.

.LONG TERM [Saturday Through Wednesday]...

Weak frontal boundary sags south of the region and washes out
across Central Florida for the weekend then remaining moisture
along this boundary lifts back northward through the area early
next week as High Pressure from the Western Atlantic builds
Northwest into the region through Wednesday. Following a brief
return to near normal temperatures over the weekend the High
pressure ridge will bring above normal temperatures into the upper
80s on Monday and into the lower 90s on Tuesday and Wednesday.
While this period will feature mostly dry conditions, there will
be enough moisture left over by the frontal boundary for a brief
shower across Northeast Florida on Sat/Sun and then both NE FL and
SE GA for Mon/Tue/Wed. These will mainly be focused during the
afternoon hours as sea breeze activity presses inland from the
Gulf and Atlc coasts and is typical for early May when there is
only limited moisture available for sea breeze convection and an
old frontal boundary in the area.

.AVIATION...[Through 00Z Friday]
VFR conditions will prevail through the period. Patchy fog will be
possible at VQQ 07z-12z. Southeast winds will decrease later this
evening as the seabreeze weakens. Winds will become SSW near 10
knots Thursday morning after 14z.

.MARINE...

South flow mainly in the 10-15 knot range into Thursday becoming
Southwest ahead of the front Thursday Night and Friday. Weak
frontal passage expected across the waters Friday Night will lead
to a brief period of Northeast Winds at 15-20 knots and seas at
4-6 feet early Saturday morning and a possible Small Craft Exercise
Caution headlines. Onshore flow will weaken to 10 to 15 knots and
continue through the remainder of the weekend then become
Southeast to South early next week as high pressure from the Atlc
builds back into the local Waters.

Rip Currents: Low end Moderate Risk of Rip currents continue in
the south flow with surf/breakers around 2 feet.

.FIRE WEATHER...

Breezy and warm conditions on Thursday afternoon will lead to high
daytime dispersions mostly from the I-10 corridor northward across
Southeast GA.

.HYDROLOGY...

Satilla River expected to crest at Moderate Flood Sometime on
Thursday with Minor Flooding expected further downstream near
Atkinson by late this weekend into early next week.
