It has been nice seeing some rainfall over parts of our area lately. That will continue again on Wednesday with a west to southwest wind and the trough of low pressure over N. Florida we will see scattered showers
A trough of low pressure system over the SE U.S. has brought onshore flow across west central Florida. This flow will once again bring a good chance for showers and isolated thunderstorms to the our area through Wednesday.
We are now locked into a wet weather pattern that will last for at least several days. A combination of a trough of low pressure in North Florida and a moist and unstable flow of humid air coming in off the Gulf is keeping our rain chances at 60%-70% for our coastal areas this morning
The good news is our rain chances increase dramatically. Since we're more than 5" below average rainfall for the year, that is good news. The bad news, the rain will still be hit-and-miss scattered showers, so everyone doesn't get rain all at the same time
We're tracking a small Low Pressure in the upper atmosphere that will spend most of the coming week right over Florida. This Low will produce more thunderstorms and more widespread thunderstorms throughout the week
We will also see an increase in moisture and instability in the air beginning on Monday with a much better chance for showers and thunderstorms scattered about through Thursday next week.
High pressure and dry air will again produce virtually rain-free skies. Rain chance will remain at only 10%, with showers that dissipate as they move westward from the interior of the state.
Storms will have a harder time developing most of the coming week as slightly drier air moves over Florida. That's in the upper atmosphere, not the surface, where dew points will hold in the low 70s for a humid feel and "feels like" temps close to 100

With an upper level low extending from S. Florida through Cuba we can expect to see moisture being pumped up into our area over the next several days bringing a good chance for much needed rain.
An upper level low pressure system off the SE coast of Florida will track WNW across south Florida on Wednesday bringing a good chance for showers and thunderstorms during the afternoon and evening.
No tropical storms are popping up in the Atlantic and Caribbean for the next several days. La Nina ended in May, and those conditions were a big factor in last year's record storm season
Rainy season is starting right on schedule. We have a weak front stalled across the Suncoast, a weak Low Pressure in the upper atmosphere over south Florida, and more moisture in the atmosphere for the next few days
Memorial Day Monday has the best chance of scattered showers, so a Plan B is a good idea for any outdoor activities in the afternoon when storms will be developing. And those rain chances stay higher for the first week of June
he unofficial start of Summer is here as we kick off the Memorial Day weekend and it’s going to feel like it as the humidity comes back. A cold front will be moving into N. Florida and
