Local Weather: An upper-level low is moving in our direction from the Atlantic and already bringing in tropical moisture to the Florida Peninsula. The National Weather Service of Miami is stating that it will be active this Independence Day. Strong storms likely. It will happen in rounds and it looks like early evening will be busy. Therefore, get your plans out-of-the-way early because some of the storms could become scattered to numerous producing funnel clouds, frequent lightning, hail and torrential rains.
