Here’s another cam of downtown bridge in Jacksonville....looks like St. Johns river area....you can also flip to other beach areas along Florida’s coast.

So that cam is the Main street bridge over the St. Johns River in Downtown Jax. They did a lot of stabilization work on that bridge yesterday in prep for the storm. Jacksonville is split by the St. Johns river — what is interesting is that once sustained winds are over 35 MPH, authorities close all the bridges separating the east and west side as well as the southside from the beaches. I have been here 14 years, and this is the first time it looks like it will happen. Additionally because the river runs south to north — with an easterly turn just beyond that bridge — the storm surge comes up the river and can flood a long way inland. Scary time to be in northeast florida.
