Drenching Rain to Make For a Wet Middle of the Week For Florida

A Gulf Coast storm that brought several inches of rain to the western and central Gulf is moving East. The next target for drenching downpours and potential flooding is Florida on Wednesday and Thursday.

Anyone with outdoor plans in the middle of the week may need to rethink them or at least pack an umbrella.

Up to 8 inches of Rain Could Fall

The storm will bring in moisture from the Caribbean as it travels from west to east across the Florida Peninsula. This is likely to cause a surge in rainfall across the Sunshine State.

While the rain is not expected to last long, a large amount of it will fall, likely to cause flooding issues in urban areas or highways.
