Jacksonville, FL – Heavy rainfall continues to impact Jacksonville and areas along I-95, with a Flood Watch in effect through the weekend. The National Weather Service (NWS) issued warnings for counties along the interstate and the St. Johns River basin, with flash flooding expected in urban, low-lying, and poor drainage areas. Jacksonville has already experienced 10-20 inches of rain so far this September, marking one of the wettest starts to the month on record.

According to NWS, another 1-2 inches of rainfall is expected through Sunday, worsening flood risks along the I-95 corridor. Saturated grounds and poor drainage will create hazardous conditions, and local authorities are advising residents to avoid travel in flood-prone areas.

Drivers and residents should monitor weather alerts and stay cautious, especially with more rain forecasted into next week.
