YOU HEARD HAYLEY TALKING ABOUT THE STORMS THAT ARE JUST NOW MOVING IN THERE. AND THERE’S A LITTLE BIT OF A DELAY IN SOME OF THE EVENING EVENTS LEADING UP TO THE FIREWORKS. THE GOOD NEWS IS WE DO BELIEVE THIS IS GOING TO BUILD OFF TOWARDS THE WEST, AND WE ARE STARTING TO COOL DOWN A LITTLE BIT NOW IN AND AROUND ALTAMONTE SPRINGS WITH TRIPLE DIGIT FEELS LIKE TEMPERATURES WITH 200,000 FOLKS.
