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.

GOES EAST GeoColor satellite imagery over Florida. Southerly flow over the peninsula as disorganized Tropical Storm Barry pulls further away from the state. Nevertheless, high moisture and daytime heating is enough to generate scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms. Credit: NOAA

GOES EAST GeoColor satellite imagery over Florida. High moisture along with daytime heating and sea breezes will provide for numerous showers and thunderstorm across much of the peninsula by late afternoon. Credit: NOAA

GOES EAST GeoColor satellite imagery over Florida. Numerous showers and thunderstorms expected over the state as high moisture, daytime heating and sea breeze formation generate the activity. Broad low pressure area was located over the Big Bend region. Credit: NOAA

GOES EAST GeoColor satellite imagery over Florida. High moisture content, daytime heating, sea breeze formation and a weak upper level trough over the peninsula will all aid in the development of numerous showers and thunderstorm development. Credit: NOAA
