Cooler air returns after soaking rain

Soaker on Wednesday, cooler temps to end the week

Jacksonville, Fl — Coming off a soaker on Wednesday afternoon, we’re going to clear out and cool down. Action News Jax Chief Meteorologist Mike Buresh says we won’t get out of the 50s today or tomorrow.

Friday morning will be cold with some inland frost possible. It does, however turn milder for the weekend with afternoon temperatures back into the 60s.

NE Florida dodged severe storms on Wednesday, as the Tampa area had tornadoes and some damage along the I-4 corridor.

1.4′' of rain was recorded at Jacksonville International Airport, about half of the average for the entire month of December.

And the same storm system is dumping heavy snow on the Northeast. We’re already seeing a handful of flight cancellations and delays out of Jacksonville.
