The wind chills? Even colder \u2014 early risers in Jacksonville know it feels like just 15 degrees out there thanks to those wind gusts in the teens.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">We\u2019re under a cold weather advisory and a freeze warning through 10 a.m. And yes, there\u2019s another freeze warning expected through 9 a.m. tomorrow. Cold air isn\u2019t letting up yet, so keep it top of mind as you plan.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">I\u2019ve already heard from folks who had frozen pipes and saw their breath on the way out the door. Some even spotted snow flurries in Middleburg and Atlantic Beach, though nothing stuck. If you caught photos or video of our rare snow \u2014 don\u2019t forget to share them on SnapJAX at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.news4jax.com\/snapjax\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.news4jax.com\/snapjax\/<\/a>!<\/p>\n<p>Chilly now, but warmth on the way<\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">We\u2019re all in this together, bracing for a cold start. This afternoon\u2019s high is forecast to reach just 53 degrees in Jacksonville, but don\u2019t expect it to feel cozy until much later in the day.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">If you\u2019re walking the dog, picking up groceries, or heading out for lunch, plan for a cold, windy start. By 3 p.m. we\u2019ll peak near 53 degrees, but it\u2019ll be a slow climb out of freezing territory. Tonight, lows drop again \u2014 the 20s and low 30s are back, and it\u2019ll only be a couple of degrees above freezing for those living right along the coast.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">But good news is just around the corner. Forecast models show a jump to 62 degrees tomorrow, and by Wednesday, we\u2019re likely enjoying highs near 68. A little rain is possible midweek, though the majority will stay dry.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">Even with this quick warm-up, expect some chilly mornings \u2014 lows through Thursday could hover from the 20s up to our seasonal average of 44.<\/p>\n<p>Protect pipes, pets, and plants<\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">Cold snaps like this aren\u2019t just uncomfortable \u2014 they can also be unsafe. Take extra care with your pipes, pets, and plants. If you\u2019ve got little ones heading to the bus stop, bundle up with gloves, coats, and scarves. Even a quick run outside can feel harsh when wind chills hit 15 degrees.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">These conditions are expected to ease after tomorrow morning, but until then, it\u2019s wise to prepare and stay alert. Remember, the first part of the day will feel bitter, even under blue skies.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">If walking your pup, I recommend holding off for the warmest part of the afternoon \u2014 or hey, maybe consider doggie daycare, just like I did!<\/p>\n<p class=\"dist__Box-sc-1fnzlkn-0 dist__TextBase-sc-1fnzlkn-3 bYFsJw cuqaEv article-text\">I\u2019ll be tracking all the changes on News4JAX and The Weather Authority, keeping you informed with every update.<\/p>\n<p>Copyright 2026 by WJXT News4JAX &#8211; All rights reserved.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"JACKSONVILLE, Fla. \u2013 This morning, the big story is the deep freeze gripping Jacksonville and all of Northeast&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":140555,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[508,116,118,117,8266,221],"class_list":["post-140554","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-jacksonville","tag-forecast","tag-jacksonville","tag-jacksonville-headlines","tag-jacksonville-news","tag-the-weather-authority","tag-weather"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/140554","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=140554"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/140554\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/140555"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=140554"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=140554"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=140554"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
