ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. — Central Floridians can expect to see rain all day Sunday, starting in the overnight hours and continuing in through the evening.
"You’ve probably learned to keep your umbrella handy with the recent rains, and Sunday will be no different," said WFTV meteorologist George Waldenberger.
Storms with heavy rain are especially likely between 1 p.m. and 8 p.m. Sunday.
Periods of rain will continue throughout the day, with isolated lightning.
Some areas will see as much as 2-3" of rainfall.

Flood advisories
Localized flooding will be a possibility as wet weather continues to move through a saturated Central Florida.
Flood advisories were issued for parts of southern Lake and western Orange counties Saturday afternoon as storms continued to drench an already saturated Central Florida.
Isolated 3-4" rainfall totals and it's still coming down...
