Alligator spotted on Tybee Friday morning, city urges caution
An alligator was seen around the mid-beach area of Tybee Island Friday morning, according to the city's Facebook page. First responders searched the area on foot and with drones for several hours but were unable to track the alligator as it swam to deeper waters. While alligators can tolerate salt water for short periods of time, they are primarily freshwater animals, living in swampy area, rivers, streams lakes and ponds. If you encounter wildlife on Tybee, call 911 if you spot anything concerning.

Lightning strike sends bride scrambling during photo shoot, NC photographer says
A lightning strike sent a bride scrambling during a photo shoot in North Carolina. 'Once the initial strike happened and we immediately fell to the ground, my first instinct was we got to get out of there,' Katie McDaniel, who had been posing for pictures before her upcoming wedding, told WCNC. 'I thought the tree was going to fall when the lightning struck it. I heard the cracking.' McDaniel told the TV station she thinks the lightning sent a current through the tree's roots, jolting the people in her group. The ordeal happened at Carver's Gap, near the North Carolina-Tennessee border and a roughly 65-mile drive northeast from Asheville. Photographer Brianna Pendley said skies were blue when the group of four ventured up Roan Mountain on June 27. Then it started to rain and hail, forcing everyone to seek cover, according to a Facebook post. 'Within literal milliseconds we were on the ground screaming because (lightning) had struck the tree/ground that we were under,' Pendley wrote. 'I felt the electricity in my feet and legs, and saw smoke coming from the ground so I knew it wasn't good.' After the lightning came out of the sky with 'no warning,' the dirt-covered group scurried down the mountain to safety, Pendley wrote on social media and told WSOC. 'At the bottom we ran into a bunch of people, some who said they seen the (lightning) strike where we were and heard the crying and screaming and were concerned,' the photographer wrote. 'We all ended up in the ER getting tests done and hooked to monitors.' No serious injuries were reported. Pendley said she feels 'blessed to live to tell about' the frightening moments. 'Yesterday was literally the scariest day of my life, hands down,' she wrote June 28. Pendley and McDaniel didn't immediately respond to McClatchy News' requests for comment on July 3. When thunderstorms hit, experts urge people to head inside immediately. If that's not possible, it's recommended to go to an area with lower elevation, avoid sheltering under isolated trees and get out of bodies of water, according to the National Weather Service.

How could rain impact July 4th in the Tampa Bay area? Here's the latest timeline
The Brief Tropical downpours are expected later this week, including on the Fourth of July, according to FOX 13 meteorologists. A disturbance in the northeastern Gulf has a 20 percent chance of development, and will act as a rainmaker either way. The highest rain chances come later this week, including Friday. TAMPA, Fla. - July 4th will likely come with rain as part of an unsettled week of weather in the Tampa Bay area. FOX 13 meteorologists say an area of low pressure in the northeastern Gulf is leading to an increased chance of downpours over the next several days. The National Hurricane Center is giving the disturbance a 30 percent chance of development in the next seven days – but whether it develops or not, meteorologists say it will act as a rainmaker. Big picture view FOX 13 Meteorologist Dave Osterberg says rain and storms will arrive later on Tuesday compared to Monday, with the highest coverage of rain coming in the PM hours. The high temperature will reach the upper 80s in Tampa – down from the average high of 91. What's next Osterberg says rain chances will go up later this week as a frontal boundary moves south, then gets "hung up" just north of the Bay Area by Thursday, July 3. That should bring more waves of rain our way in time for Independence Day as deep tropical moisture moves over Central Florida. As of Tuesday morning, rain chances are expected to reach 70 percent on Thursday and Friday, with several inches of total rainfall expected over the next week. As for whether the whole Fourth of July will be a washout for everyone: not necessarily, according to Osterberg. "It's important to note that during this whole wet pattern, it's not going to rain all day every day," Osterberg said. Still, rain will be something to watch for through the holiday weekend and into next week, as well. The Source This story was written with information from FOX 13 meteorologists.
