SUMMARY: Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has signed a death warrant for Samuel Lee Smithers, 72, who is scheduled for execution by lethal injection on October 14 at Florida State Prison. Smithers was convicted for the 1996 murders of Christy Cowan and Denise Roach, whose bodies were found in a pond in Plant City. Smithers confessed to beating and strangling the women, and received two death sentences upheld by the Florida Supreme Court. This execution is part of DeSantis’s record-setting pace, with 14 executions slated in Florida for 2025, surpassing the previous annual record of eight since 1976.

SUMMARY: South Florida will see fewer showers in the coming days as a frontal boundary moves south, reducing rain chances from 50% to around 30-40% through Sunday and Monday. The atmosphere’s moisture is dropping, ending recent heavy rainfall and flooding. Showers will be scattered and lighter, unlike the intense storms earlier. Dry air behind the boundary will bring a needed break, allowing soil to recover before rain chances increase midweek. The tropics show a 40% chance of development in the eastern Atlantic, but it’s expected to move northward without impacting Florida. Overall, the weekend looks better with less rain and improving conditions.
