Central Florida should expect a mostly wet and cloudy day for Thursday.

• Evening temps will drop to the lower 70s with showers and storms expected.
• Some areas could experience flooding. Make sure to stay away from flooded areas.

Forecast for Friday and the weekend - Flood watch in effect, at least until Saturday afternoon

High rainfall through the weekend as Cristobal’s rain bands arrive in Central Florida. Keep in mind that Cristobal is not forecast to make a direct hit to Florida, but the system is so broad and messy that Florida will get a big chunk of its convection.

Rain will be on and off and it will remain mostly cloudy. Expect rain amounts above 3 inches area-wide and some spots with over 5 inches through Sunday.
