Jacksonville, Fl — A strong cold front is going to impact travel ahead of Thanksgiving. Action News Jax Chief Meteorologist Mike Buresh is tracking a few offshore showers today. We are headed into the low 80s, it’ll be our warmest day of the week.
“If you’re already hitting the road today west on I-10 you will run into rain. In the Panhandle it won’t be until this afternoon but once you get west of there, west of Mobile, it’s already raining and storming now. That’s the system heading eastbound.”, said Buresh.
