Higher humidity, temps, rain/storm chances

Jacksonville, Fl — Our warming trend is underway with higher humidity as well. Action News Jax Chief Meteorologist Mike Buresh says we’ll climb into the mid-80s this afternoon with a threat for rain and storms.

“Pretty strong storms are going to fire near the Florida-Georgia border this afternoon. So not very far away but the tendency should be for these to stay mainly north of the border through this afternoon”, said Buresh.
