I'm Stephen Ruiz, online content editor for OrlandoSentinel.com. Happy birthday to former Orlando Magic guard Penny Hardaway, who turns 46 today. Make this a big day for you, too, by enjoying some of our top stories. Send me an email and let me know what you think.

Good morning. It's Tuesday, July 18. In our top story, Central Floridians won't be able to park under I-4 anymore because of the ongoing I-4 Ultimate highway renovation, then the city's planned urban park called Under-I.

Meanwhile, a record that had stood for nearly six decades fell as three inches of rain were registered at Orlando International Airport.

Finally, HUD Secretary Dr. Ben Carson was in Central Florida on Monday. See what he had to say here.
