.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 240 PM EDT Fri Jun 14 2024

Some tropical moisture still lingers over south florida, from the
low pressure surface that has  moved off into the Atlantic. This
will keep most of the shower activity south of I4 once again.
However some sea breeze convergence could happen close to sunset
aiding the development of some showers and storms over the interior.
These should progress towards the west coast through the evening
hours. Tomorrow a very similar set up is likely, with isolated
showers possible down south, becoming more widespread in the
afternoon. Showers and storms should help moderate temperatures
throughout the week, keeping the highs a little closer to normal for
this time of year. Isolated heat indices into the triple digits
possible throughout the week as well.
