Florida – A humid, hazy start is slowing visibility across Jacksonville this morning, with patchy fog clinging to roadways and headlights glowing through the mist along I-95 and I-295. The air feels heavy, and visibility can drop quickly in low spots and near water.

According to the National Weather Service, fog lifts by mid-morning as sunshine takes over, pushing temperatures rapidly toward the mid-80s . Winds stay light early, then shift southwest and increase slightly through the day.

Conditions stay mostly quiet into the afternoon, but changes arrive quickly heading into the weekend. Clouds build Saturday, and winds strengthen, with gusts reaching up to 30 mph by late day. While much of the daytime stays dry, storm chances begin increasing after sunset.

Saturday night brings about a 40 percent chance of thunderstorms, some producing brief heavy rain and gusty winds. By Sunday, that unsettled pattern continues, with scattered storms developing through the afternoon and evening. Breezy conditions will make it feel slightly cooler despite highs near 71°F.

Monday keeps the active pattern in place. Temperatures climb back to the upper 70s, but scattered showers and storms could impact both morning and evening travel windows. Keep an umbrella nearby and monitor radar if heading out.

Looking ahead, warmer and more stable conditions begin to return by midweek, with highs climbing into the low 80s and fewer disruptions expected.

If you’re driving this morning, use low beams in fog and allow extra space between vehicles. Conditions improve quickly, but early hazards remain.
