It will almost certainly rain at some point during the day in the summer. Even on days where it says there’s no chance of rain, we’ve been surprised by a quick shower. So, it’s good to be prepared with the essentials, especially on days like today, when there is severe weather in the forecast.

A flood advisory is in effect in Brevard, Indian River, Okeechobee, Orange, Osceola Counties in Florida until 7:15PM EDT today, according to News 6 WKMG.
