JACKSONVILLE, Fla. \u2013 Good morning! I\u2019m News4JAX\u2019s meteorologist Katie Garner, and I\u2019m glad to be back with you, especially on such a beautiful day.<\/p>\n
If you\u2019re heading out early, especially in Macclenny, you\u2019ll likely notice some fog. Our Exact Track 4D radar shows visibility dropping in a few spots \u2013 mainly the more rural areas.<\/p>\n
If you\u2019re driving, those low-beam headlights are your best friend when it\u2019s foggy. Please keep an eye out for the kids walking to the bus stop around 6 a.m.<\/p>\n
Dress warm, afternoon is expected to warm up<\/p>\n
Temperatures early today are on the chilly side. We\u2019re seeing 46 degrees at JAX Airport, and it\u2019s 58 degrees in both St. Augustine and Mayport. Personally, I\u2019d grab a coat this morning!<\/p>\n
By later in the day, it\u2019s forecast to climb to around 77 degrees for school pick-up or whenever you get done with your day. It\u2019s shaping up to be a great opportunity to get some sunshine \u2013 maybe even do your homework outdoors!<\/p>\n
Winds are forecast to stay light with only a gentle breeze, and gusts should be down, according to our latest models.<\/p>\n
Drought continues, stay cautious outdoors<\/p>\n
We\u2019re still under a dry spell and considered to be in a drought right now. While your plans are likely to go off without a hitch, please keep fire safety and other drought precautions in mind.<\/p>\n
I\u2019ll update you on any needed precautions as we get more information, so keep checking in with The Weather Authority.<\/p>\n
