Today at the Editor’s glance: WNZF’s David Ayres on Free For All Fridays this morning welcomes Flagler County Planning Director Adam Mengel and GoTobin Publisher and Realtor Toby Tobin to talk about rapid growth in the county, with an update from health officials on the covid pandemic. Cultural Grants: Palm Coast government’s cultural grants committee meets at 4 p.m. at City Hall to review this year’s applications from non-profit arts and culture organizations for grants of up to $3,000 each. The city council set aside $30,000 in total. Tropical activity: Tropical Storm Henri is churning away in the mid-Atlantic and is expected to turn into a hurricane by Saturday, too far from the North Carolina coast to affect it too terribly but not good news for Long Island and New England: that’s where Henri could be by Monday. Heat index in Palm Coast: Careful, today will be another scorcher, one of the hottest ones yet. It’ll be partly cloudy with a chance of showers and thunderstorms in the afternoon, some of those potentially heavy with rainfall. Highs in the mid 90s, with heat index readings of 104 to 108 in the morning.
