JACKSONVILLE, Fla.<\/strong> \u2013 If you were having a tough time getting out the door this morning, you weren\u2019t alone. I\u2019m seeing some pretty dense fog stretching across Jacksonville and nearby areas, and, trust me, my own drive in was a little nerve-racking.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re under a fog advisory until 9 a.m., and visibility is already down in a lot of neighborhoods. Spots like Green Cove Springs, Palatka, Palm Coast, Orange Park, Macclenny, Gainesville, Lake City, and even up into Waycross are dealing with reduced visibility.<\/p>\n

Just a friendly reminder: Please turn your headlights on low beams\u2014even if it seems light out\u2014and take it slow if you\u2019re out on the roads. I noticed this myself: some drivers are still forgetting to turn their lights on, and that really adds to the risk in low-visibility areas. Jacksonville\u2019s numbers for visibility are a little off on the maps this morning, but it\u2019s safe to say things are foggy out there.<\/p>\n

Warm weather and dry days ahead<\/b><\/p>\n

Now for the good news\u2014if you love sunshine! After the fog burns off, we\u2019re headed for a big warm-up across the region. Highs are expected to reach up to 80 degrees by the end of the week, which is well above our average of 66 degrees.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll notice a gradual climb: temperatures moving from the mid-70s Tuesday through Thursday, and then peaking around 80 by Friday. I double-checked on Exact Track 4D and radar is crystal clear right now. Dry weather is in the forecast for the next several days, so if you\u2019ve got outdoor plans, you\u2019re in the clear!<\/p>\n

Golfers and anyone headed outside\u2014enjoy the mild 50s and 60s through the early part of the day, with no weather interruptions for your activities.<\/p>\n

Drought concerns and slim rain chances<\/b><\/p>\n

With all this sunshine, there\u2019s a tradeoff. Our drought monitor shows that we could really use some rain, even if you\u2019re personally loving these dry days.<\/p>\n

Rain chances stay slim to none most of the week\u2014a slight bump to about 5 percent for a stray, light shower, and then a minor uptick to 20 percent by Saturday and Sunday. Any showers that do pop up aren\u2019t expected to be enough to make a real dent in our dry spell.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ll be keeping you posted if our pattern takes a wetter turn. And, as always, you can help us track changing conditions\u2014share your weather photos or foggy morning shots at SnapJAX<\/a>.<\/p>\n
