Early morning rain and high winds have caused concerns about traffic due to the lack of rain and potential wildfires. The Weather Authority predicts that wind gusts of 25 to 45 mph are expected, making motorists more cautious. Despite this rain, the drought monitor has not improved significantly. It will take multiple rainy days to break the drought. The rainfall deficit map shows a significant gap for the last month and the past year. Looking ahead, Jacksonville should see temperatures rise into the 70s and possibly the 80s by the weekend.
