pnow, that yellow shade, thae the parea where we had that slight prisk of some stronger storms for pthe afternoon and then you can psee we've got the tornado watch pin that area and then as you get pdown over florida, later on this pevening and into early tomorrow, pjust a very marginal risk of pseeing some of these stronger pstorms. pso here it is on future cast. pwatch that low. ptowards the east and then start pto move towards the north so peven though we've got the storms pheading our way there, they'll ptend to weaken some as they move pthrough by late tonight and pearly tomorrow morning. pthat's why that threat of severe pweather is lower and then high ressure builds in, just going pto reinforce the front that pbrings more dry, pleasant air pacross the state so the rest of pthe week after getting hit by pthis looks good with plenty of psun, low humidity, comfortable ptemperatures. p70 for today. pmostly cloudy, late day shower pand then for tonight, here comes pthe
