While the storms have mostly fallen apart, they’ve left behind widespread rain keeping Central Florida wet as we approach bedtime.
Some flooding was reported in Kissimmee, according to Waldenberger.

Waldenberger said it’s “as if a shield of rain is parked over Central Florida,” but much of it will break up into the night.
A few showers may linger through early morning, especially near the coast, Waldenberger said.
He said a wet Wednesday will follow, with rain being likely at any point in the day.
