Tropical Wave Makes for Stormy Start of the Week

Heavy thunderstorm activity is likely today.

Seminole Heights residents hoping for a break from thunderstorms aren’t going to get it – at least not in the early part of the week.

According to the National Weather Service, there’s a 70 percent chance of storms today, some of which are likely to be rather heavy. A tropical wave sitting over Florida is to blame for the high chance of storms.

While not all areas will see especially heavy storms, the weather service does warn the wave could produce “strong, gusty winds, locally heavy rainfall and deadly cloud-to-ground lightning.”

At this point, the weather service is expecting the worst of today's thunderstorms to move through the area in the afternoon and early evening hours.

Today’s high will be in the upper 80s with a low in the 70s.

The outlook starts to improve tomorrow and into the latter half of the week when rain chances drop into the 20-to-30-percent range. Expect highs in the upper 80s to low 90s throughout most of the week.

Thanks for sharing that. What neighborhood do you usually see him in?

Yes, Page--I love the idea of a little fresh foods market...prepared foods, produce...it would be soRead More nice to have a place to walk to with the kids in the late afternoon, pick up a snack and some veggies for that night's dinner...a place with outdoor seating that would be a neighborhood gathering spot. A place that would become a 3x a week stop for neighbors, a place people enjoy "running up" to. I'm excited to see what happens!

I would love to see a small market in the neighborhood also. With fresh produce, and other basicRead More necessities for cooking, that you might have just run out of or forgot to pick up when you did your weekly shopping. Plus a nice selection of wine. Circle K has a good selection of beer, but there isn't a good selection of wines in the neighborhood for takeaway.

I would like to see another Family Dollar. One on every corner is not enough.
