Record-setting cold temps hit Jacksonville, FDOT and GDOT emphasize readiness and safety
It’s a record-breaking cold day here in Jacksonville, and the chill is definitely being felt across the city. Families are bundling up, protecting plants, and road crews are closely monitoring forecasts and roads. Meteorologist Michelle McCormick noted that the last time Jacksonville saw such cold was in 1927 when the record low was 22 degrees. Interestingly, that was the same year the Florida Theatre opened! Reporter John Asebes spoke with residents to learn about what they're doing to stay warm, along with GDOT and FDOT to learn about potential safety measures that could be taken if the weather affects the roads.
