"Central Florida Braces for Locally Heavy Rain as Scattered Storms Approach"

Scattered storms are expected in Central Florida, with the potential for locally heavy rain, frequent lightning, and strong wind gusts. Temperatures will be hot and humid, reaching the 90s with heat index values in the triple digits. Rain chances will remain moderate to high throughout the week. In the tropics, an area of showers and storms in the central Atlantic is expected to become a tropical depression next week, but it poses no threat to Florida.
