On Saturday, the severe risk creeps into North Florida with a "LEVEL 1" "possible" risk. Damaging wind gusts, heavy rain and lightning will be the main issues. The front will move through Florida overnight Saturday into Sunday. 

Sunday will trend cooler and in the 70s as we bring in the official start of Spring! If you're boating this weekend, expect decent seas today and Saturday, increasing to near 5-feet on Sunday behind the front.
