High heat combined with high humidity can be a recipe for multiple heat-related health risks. A recent analysis shows that equivalent temperatures, a metric of humid heat, has been increasing since the 1950s, and could contribute to dangerous living conditions now and in the future.

Parts of North and Central Florida may get several rounds of strong to severe storms through tomorrow evening.

Although isolated tornadoes and small hail could develop from the most intense cells, damaging straight-line winds will be the primary hazard.

Beach umbrellas can turn into a wind-blown danger if not secured properly.

A good rainstorm can be welcome in dry or drought conditions. But when the ground is parched, rain water can fail to saturate the ground, resulting in the risk for a flash flood.

Flash flooding will be possible over the Panhandle through the end of the workweek.

The forecast largely falls in step with NOAA's updated hurricane season outlook, also released Thursday, in continuing to predict an above-average hurricane season.

Favorable atmospheric conditions coupled with an ongoing La Niña are still expected to lead to an above-average hurricane season.
