NHC: Forecasters watching Caribbean Sea for tropical development

It looks like another hot, sweaty day for Central Florida. 

Expect area highs to stay in the 80s along the beaches with a fresh Atlantic sea breeze developing. Inland, temps will trend hotter and in the 90s. The local air will also have that muggy, sticky feel. Skies will feature mixed conditions with clouds streaming by for much of the day.
