Strong And Severe Thunderstorms Barrel into Central Florida – Monitoring Impact Weather As Highs Surge into the Upper 90s
TO 1. GREAT JOB, MOM AND DAD PULLING OFF THAT SURPRISE. ALL RIGHT. NO SURPRISE HERE. IT’S JUNE. IT’S HOT. AND IT’S ALSO STORMING OUTSIDE. MARQUISE. YES. STORMS ROLLING IN LIKE CLOCKWORK HERE IN CENTRAL FLORIDA. LATE AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING BEFORE SUNSET. THAT’S WHEN WE SEE THE STRONGEST STORMS. BUT ACROSS OUR COASTAL COMMUNITIES, NO RAIN YET, BUT TEMPERATURES DEFINITELY ARE ON THE RISE. 93 ACROSS NEW SMYRNA BEACH, 95 IN DAYTONA. AND ONCE YOU FACTOR IN THE HUMIDITY. WELL, IT FEELS LIKE TEMPERATURES ARE WELL INTO THE TRIPLE DIGITS. IT FEELS LIKE 102 IN DAYTONA, AND IT FEELS LIKE YOU ARE SIZZLING IN NEW SMYRNA BEACH WITH THE FEELS LIKE TEMPERATURE OF 114 DEGREES. NOTICE ONCE YOU CROSS EAST OF I-4, THAT’S WHERE THE SERIOUS HEAT AND THE SERIOUS HUMIDITY DOES LIVE. SO WE COULD SEE SOME VERY STRONG STORMS ACROSS VOLUSIA COUNTY COMING UP IN THE NEXT FEW HOURS. AND IT’S ALL COURTESY OF THIS SOUTH AND WESTERLY FLOW, REALLY JUST PICKING UP THAT GULF COAST MOISTURE AND WARMING US UP ALL ACROSS THE SUNSHINE STATE. BUT RIGHT NOW WE’RE LOOKING AT SOME STRONG AND HEAVY SHOWERS ACROSS I-95 INTO FLAGLER COUNTY. IN FACT, YOU DO HAVE A STRONG STORM WITH WIND SPEEDS THAT COULD SURGE UP TO 40MPH FROM PALM COAST THROUGH FLAGLER BEACH ALONG A ONE A BACK TOWARDS THE WEST. WE’RE STILL MONITORING THE RAIN SHOWERS, CRUISING ACROSS EASTERN LAKE COUNTY AND ACROSS MARION COUNTY AS WELL, WHERE WE’VE SEEN ABOUT 1 TO 2IN OF RAIN STACK UP SO FAR TODAY. RUTLAND LAKE PANASOFFKEE YOU GUYS HAVE BEEN WATCHING THE SHOWERS FOR THE LAST HOUR OR SO OUT TOWARDS DELTONA ALONG THE I-4 CORRIDOR. STILL, HEAVY RAIN SHOWERS DO PERSIST. NOT MUCH FOR THE MOMENT. IN ORANGE COUNTY YOU SEE A BRIEF ROUND OF RAIN ACROSS SEAWORLD RIGHT NOW. BUT I WANT TO SHOW YOU GUYS THIS. THIS IS OUR VELOCITY PRODUCT. AND WE’RE NOTICING THAT SEA BREEZE INCHING FURTHER WEST, COMING IN FROM THE ATLANTIC COAST. AND THIS COULD COLLIDE WITH THE SHOWERS FROM THE SOUTH AND THE WEST IN VOLUSIA COUNTY COMING UP IN THE NEXT FEW HOURS. SO THIS IS THE AREA THAT THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE HAS HIGHLIGHTED, IN WHICH WE COULD SEE SOME HEAVY ROUNDS OF RAIN ENTERING THE EVENING COMING UP, TIMING THOSE OUT NOW ON FUTURECAST, LOOK AT THIS EXPLOSION OF MOISTURE ACROSS DAYTONA BEACH, NEW SMYRNA AS WELL, PUSHING TOWARDS THE EAST IN THE NEXT FEW HOURS. HERE WE ARE AT 7:00. ALSO RAIN IN SANFORD, ORLANDO ACROSS THE CITY. BEAUTIFUL. AND WE’RE NOT DONE YET. THROUGH THE 8:00 HOUR. YOU CAN STILL SEE SOME SHOWERS ACROSS THE I FOUR CORRIDOR. AS THESE PUSH TOWARDS THE THE EAST, BUT WE’LL WRAP UP THE IMPACT WEATHER AT 8:00 AND 9:00 COMING UP. SO IF YOU’RE IN NEW SMYRNA, EXPECT THOSE HEAVY ROUNDS OF THUNDER COMING YOUR WAY AT 6:00 AND 8:00, TAPERING BY NINE AND TEN, AND WE’LL STAY CLOUDY AND WARM TONIGHT AS TEMPERATURES STALL IN THE UPPER 70S ACROSS THE COAST, MAYBE A TOUCH COOLER INLAND, BUT STILL MUCH WARMER THAN OUR SEASONAL AVERAGE WILL BE ANYWHERE BETWEEN 75 AND 78 DEGREES TONIGHT. ONCE THE SHOWERS DO COME TO AN END. BUT ROUND TWO IS ON ITS WAY TOMORROW. TRACKING THE REMNANTS OF ARTHUR MOVING TOWARDS THE NORTH AND EAST INTO THE ATLANTIC COAST, WHERE WE DO SHOW A 10% CHANCE FOR DEVELOPMENT OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS. BUT TODAY AND TOMORROW, STILL WATCHING OUT FOR THAT SEVERE WEATHER RISK. YOUR DAY PLANNER FOR TOMORROW HAS IMPACT WEATHER ON THE TABLE AS WE WILL BE WATCHING OUT FOR NOT JUST THE HEAT, BUT ALSO THE CHANCE FOR HEAVY SHOWERS AND STORMS, ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE COASTLINE. THIS IS WHERE I DO BELIEVE WE COULD SEE THAT STRONG FLOODING THREAT THROUGHOUT THE AFTERNOON AND INTO THE EARLY EVENING BEFORE THE RAIN DOES TAPER AWAY THIS WEEKEND, HIGH TEMPERATURES ARE BACK IN THE LOW 90S BOTH ON SATURDAY AND SUNDAY, BUT WE’RE WATCHING OUT FOR THOSE FEELS LIKE CONDITIONS. SO AS WE SWING INTO SUMMER, WE GOT A HIGH OF 93 COMING YOUR WAY WARMER, ROLLING INTO THE WORKWEEK. NOTICE THAT THE CHANCE FOR RAIN DOES TAPER JUST A BIT MONDAY AND TUESDAY, BUT AS THE RAIN TAPERS DOWN, THE TEMPERATURES
