Isolated to scattered lightning storms will develop through late
afternoon across interior portions of east central Florida as the
east coast sea breeze moves inland. The highest storm chances
around 30 percent are expected west of a DeLand to Orlando to
Kenansville line later into the afternoon. Main threats in storms
late this afternoon will be dangerous lightning strikes, wind gusts
up to 35 to 40 mph and heavy downpours.
A moderate risk for rip currents will be present along the east
central Florida coast today. If venturing to the beach and into the
water, be sure to swim only in sight of a lifeguard, and never swim
alone.
Higher moisture moving across FL will lead to slightly higher rain
chances today than this past weekend. The east coast sea breeze will
push inland across northern areas, developing isolated to scattered
thunderstorms in the early to mid afternoon. Later today, a
collision with the west coast sea breeze will occur over the
interior, leading to stronger thunderstorms for Lake, western Orange
and Osceola counties. Main threats in storms today will be dangerous
lightning strikes, wind gusts up to 40 mph and heavy downpours
producing localized flooding.
A moderate risk for rip currents will be present along the east
central FL coast today. If venturing to the beach and into the
water, be sure to swim only in sight of a lifeguard, and never swim
by yourself.
Near normal afternoon highs in the low to mid 90s.
No additional showers or storms are expected across east central
Florida into tonight, with skies remaining mostly clear.
Temperatures will fall into the low to mid 70s late tonight.
