a lot of thunderstorms are being seen offshore and through the afternoon we will see them making there way through central florida again today.

look for heavy rainfall, frequent lightning, and some small hail are all likely through the day. we saw golfball size hail yesterday in seminole county around altamonte springs, so the atmosphere is set up for severe thunderstorms and not just showers.

we will keep the coverage high through thursday at around 50% - 60% coverage before friday dropping it back down to 30%.

keep checking the radar, and we will keep it updated all day long!
