Parisians Take a Historic Plunge Into the Seine After 100 Years
PARIS (AP) — Cries of 'It is warm!' rang out across the Seine on Saturday morning as Parisians jumped into the river — legally — for the first time in more than 100 years. Public swimming was allowed in designated areas of the Seine, including two newly built wooden decks near the Eiffel Tower and the Île Saint-Louis in central Paris. Before sunrise, a municipal officer skimmed away the last few patches of algae with a fishnet. Soon after, a line of eager Parisians formed, towels in hand, waiting for their chance to jump in.

More rain on tap for Central Florida on Saturday
The rain of the holiday weekend is set to fall at least one more day with more showers forecast for Central Florida on Saturday, according to the National Weather Service. Tropical moisture remains hung over the state as the stalled front interacted with a low pressure area that formed off the coast of Jacksonville on Friday eventually grew into what is now Tropical Storm Chantal. That boundary is near stationary and expected to remain over north or Central Florida through today as Chantal moves extremely slowly toward the Carolina coast. What that means for the region is more rain, especially from 2-8 p.m. with chances diminishing overnight. The NWS in Melbourne says chances for east Central Florida range from 70-90% for Saturday with most downpours expected to bring 1/2 to 1 inch of rain, but that some areas could see up to 4 inches, which was the case on Thursday and Friday, especially along the I-4 corridor. Some severe weather could coincide with frequent lightning strikes and winds up to 45 mph. 'Just as in past days, rain and thunder diminish through the evening with mainly quiet conditions overnight. Seasonably hot/humid conditions are forecast ahead of the afternoon/evening storms,' forecasters said.
