Happy 4th everyone! Rain and storm chances will once again be high this afternoon in the metro Orlando area. They'll develop by lunchtime, and then become widespread. The good news... most of the rain will be out of here by 9:15pm for the start of the fireworks at Lake Eola. pic.twitter.com/PBS2Iugbwp
