Looks like it's starting to build to the west

I hope it builds to the west...it seems our storms don't start until 5pm or later.

Storms have turned deadly today as 2 people have been struck by Lightning... One man was struck in St Johns county and another in Manatee County. Nasty storms moved through My area a little earlier with some hail and wind damage reports---them storms are now SW of me with New storms firing near Camden Co, Ga moving south and southwest as well--so guess I'll be seeing some more action. Odd direction of movement to the storms also IMHO.

Jax Forecast...
Remainder of this afternoon. Mostly cloudy with numerous showers and thunderstorms. Some storms may produce strong winds and heavy rain. Tonight. Mostly cloudy with numerous evening showers and thunderstorms with locally heavy rain. Some storms may produce strong winds. Showers tapering off late this evening. Lows in the lower 70s. Northwest winds 5 mph in the evening becoming light. Chance of rain 60 percent.

Here are a few of the reports so far from Round1.

Starting to get dark here...and hearing thunder. Looks like it will move to the west coast today. I'll definitely take it.

It's been storming here in the panhandle since about 1000 CST. Our rain gauge says 2.0 inches. Lightning galore and not one storm watch or warning. Weird. Maybe those folks over in Mobile are asleep!
