Jacksonville, Fl — It’s a First Alert Weather Day due to widespread frost/freeze early today.

First Alert Meteorologist Garrett Bedenbaugh says temperatures dropped to the 20s inland and lower to mid 30s along the coast.

Highs today in the mid 50s but with plenty of sunshine and no rain, like Sunday.

Overnight, expect another inland frost/freeze away from the coast into early Tuesday.

Bedenbaugh says we return to near 70 degrees in the afternoon by the end of the week.
