A largely quiet tropical Atlantic over the past three weeks may soon change in response to changes in the atmosphere over the global tropics.

Flooding is ongoing in several counties along Florida's Nature Coast, where more rounds of heavy rain are expected through Thursday evening.

An active season is still the most likely outcome when the 2021 Hurricane Season comes to a close according NOAA's updated seasonal forecast.

Anticipated heavy rainfall over the coming days have resulted in Flood Watches for much of the Nature Coast, Big Bend, and stretching as far west as the Panama City area in the Panhandle.

Florida is about to see some relief from the excessive heat that was over a large part of the state this past weekend, but it will come at a price.

The dangerous combination of heat and humidity will continue across the entire Florida Panhandle and a growing portion of north and central Florida Saturday.

Heat indices could be as high as 110º across the Florida Panhandle and portions of North Florida for several days in a row.

The low is expected to move inland later Monday or Monday night over Northeast Florida and Southeast Georgia, ending the possibility of further development.
