Good morning. It's Sunday, May 14. First, Seminole opened its $27 million sports mega-complex a year ago last week, and results are looking positive. By then end of 2016, the complex generated more than $20 million for the local economy.

Next up, despite the rainfall Saturday evening in Central Florida, drought conditions will likely persist next week.

Lastly, looking for something to do this Sunday? Check out a gallery of events in Central Florida here.
