SUMMARY: Ahead of thousands of nationwide “No Kings” protests on June 14 against President Trump’s administration, Jacksonville officials urged peaceful demonstrations. Protests began early Saturday near Beach Boulevard, with expected large turnouts in Jacksonville, Orange Park, and St. Augustine.

South Florida weather for Saturday 9 AM: Hot, dry forecast.
SUMMARY: South Florida will experience a hot, dry Saturday with summer-like conditions despite seasonable temperatures. Morning lows near 85°F in Miami will feel like the mid-90s due to high heat indexes. Afternoon heat indexes could reach the upper 90s to around 100°F in areas like Deerfield Beach and Fort Lauderdale. There’s a 20% chance of brief, light showers in the morning, mainly away from outdoor activity areas, with isolated evening showers possible but unlikely to disrupt plans.
