Today: Mostly sunny in the morning, then partly cloudy with a 20 % chance of showers and thunderstorms in the afternoon. Highs in the upper 90s. Northeast winds 5 mph shifting to the east in the afternoon. Heat index readings 102 to 106.

Isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms are possible this afternoon and this evening along the I-75 corridor in north Florida. Storm motion will be south to southwest 10 mph or less. The primary convective concern will be gusty winds.
Hot temperatures combined with increasing humidity will create heat index values in the 100 to 110 degree range today. Exercise caution if outdoors.
Today's pollen level: 4.2-Medium (on a scale of 1to12): predominate pollen: Grass and Oak.
Forecast Details: water imagery indicated a swath of dry air rotating over the area from the east around the northern periphery of a retrograding upper level low that was offshore of Tampa. Models indicate PWATs of 1.5 inches within the swath and have thus continued to advertise very low to silent chance of rain across our eastern zones today. The best Chances of afternoon/evening rain will be across our inland Georgia zones were low level moisture and shallow forcing will be enhanced by a weak surface trough sliding Southward across central Georgia that was noted by a mid/low cloud field early this morning. This trigger, in addition to the sea breezes and outflows as well as a very weak lobe of PVA moving over the area from the north during maximum heating support a low chance of afternoon thunderstorms. The main convective concern will continue to be gusty winds.
