SEMINOLE COUNTY, Fla. — In just the last month, two children died from drowning in Seminole County. It’s a harsh reminder for the Martin family, whose 2-year-old son, Gunner, died from drowning in 2016. Over the span of a decade, the family is turning tragedy into action. “It happens to normal people, it happens when you don’t think it does, it happens in the easiest moments,” said Christina York, the executive director for the Gunner Martin Foundation.

ORLANDO, Fla. — The risk of wildfires continues throughout Central Florida. As of Friday morning, there were two active wildfires in the region. The largest, “Cowpen 2” in Flagler County, had burned 250 acres and was 90% contained at last report. The “Palm Cay” fire, a smaller blaze in Marion County, measured about a half-acre in size and was also about 90% contained. The lack of rain has significantly contributed to dry conditions, with not much relief in sight.
