Hot, humid weather to continue with highs in the 90s, lows in the 70s through the week. An upper level ridge will shift a little north & west Thu. & Fri. which should allow a couple of upper level disturbances to drop southward into the SE U.S. igniting afternoon & evening storms -- more numerous than the first half of the week.
Check out the photo below from Tony Osbon, Amelia Island looking west/southwest toward Jacksonville as t'storms build near JIA late Tue.

On July 2, 2012, an M5.6 class solar flare erupted in the sun's southern hemisphere from large sunspot 1515. It peaked at 6:52 AM EDT. This video was captured by NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) satellite in the 304 ultraviolet wavelength. Click here for the video.
