Temps set to drop as weekend kicks off

Cool snap this time will be brief

The mild 70s we had Friday return Sunday but first we get a cool night and Saturday.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Although the skies are mostly cloudy we have warmed enough to send temps into the low 70s. But don't expect that to last on Saturday. Another cool down is coming.

Look for dry conditions tonight but with a front sliding in there could be a chance for sprinkles mainly over southern Georgia. Temperatures will drop into the mid 50s by 10 pm with a colder sunrise start Saturday near 45.
