The most famous footprint ever made occurred on this day 50 years.
GOES EAST GeoColor satellite imagery over Florida. An east to west oriented surface high pressure axis remained across the central peninsula while a weak trough was located over the northeast Gulf of Mexico. Afternoon sea breezes will generate showers and thunderstorms with inland areas being favored. Upper level winds will continue to push anvil clouds towards the southwest. Credit: NOAA

GOES EAST GeoColor satellite imagery over Florida. Stagnant mid summer pattern over the state. East to west oriented surface high pressure axis was lying across the central peninsula resulting in light and variable winds. East coast sea breeze will develop and initiate isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms over inland areas by early afternoon and will travel westward. A majority of activity will be over the western half of the peninsula by late afternoon. Current east coast offshore convection will diminish as they near the coast. Credit: NOAA

GOES EAST GeoColor satellite imagery over Florida. Upper level high pressure center over the Florida Georgia border with a piece of energy rotating around it as evident by the offshore east coast convection. Light onshore winds along the east coast and high humidity will be the main story for today. Afternoon sea breeze boundaries will initiate isolated thunderstorms over inland areas. Credit: NOAA
GOES EAST GeoColor satellite imagery over Florida. High pressure and lower moisture will limit thunderstorm coverage over much of the peninsula.
