Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeDeep layer high pressure remained over central Florida with a low-level ridge axis positioned over Lake Okeechobee, and a mid-level ridge axis across central Florida. The resulting subsidence kept shower and thunderstorm development to a minimum and allowed temperatures to climb into the lower to mid 90s. As the sea breeze pushed inland dew points rose into the upper 70s creating heat index values around 105, and as high as 108 sporadically.
