Question Yellow Flowering Tree?

Just recently, I have seen one or two of these in the Villages and quite a few more on 441 near Mt Dora.

A decent size tree with bright yellow, medium size flowers and not many leaves (yet?). Beautiful blooming flowers.

Anybody know what kind of tree this is?

Mommullr.... I think you nailed it. Just looked up Cassia, aka Golden Shower tree, and that looks like what I saw. Thanks for the ID.
