The temperature overnight i have a buddy of mine who works for accuweather with 16 inches of rain today. It is insane in terms of rainfall totals. That will continue across the area at least for the next 36 hours. The big question will be are we looking at a repeat of what we had today and then what about the changes we have been talking about . Right now we are getting a break. I expect there was something more showers developing overnight but at this point in time i am not sold on the washout that we had earlier on today. These are some numbers. East of i75 a lot of the rain tonight is falling east over on the east coast. They are still getting hammered from what we had earlier today. Closer to the coast officially 9 to 10 inches of rain with 16 inches of rain and this has been primarily from clearwater down to st. Pete. Tomorrow we will get some heavy rain at times but i think a lot of this will hinge on just how well developed hermine gets. We have been talking about this since 5 00. Still in the mid70s so this afternoon with the rain continuing to fall. A lot of folks were the heaviest rains to arrive tomorrow. When you get a tropical system like hermine it is common to get prolonged rain. That is an interesting tidbit with florida weather. You get an organized Tropical Storm you dont normally see this setup like we had today and overnight tonight there will still be rain but look at tomorrow morning. The models setup will be heavier. There may be one thing i guarantee. Some folks will get drained on tomorrow with several inches of rain. In general it will not be nearly the rainfall totals that we had today. By lunchtime it looks as though we are getting another area setting up. We had all the heavy rain that came up at high tide with another high tide tomorrow afternoon. Looking at heavy rains to through with no place for the water to go you will get flying. Then with the developing storm to the west pushing everything from the south that is the issue with coastal flooding. Do i think itll be a huge deal . Maybe one to 2 feet. Tomorrow we will have bands of rain coming through. I just dont see that washout like we had today. Therell be heavy rain at times and clearing and were heavy rain. Already moved in then we start looking at more of a moisture extending from the center of the eastern seaboard. We will still look at rain across our area through friday maybe even into saturday at the eastern seaboard. There is the possibility this could impact boston by later this weekend. That is how big of a change this is going to be from a system that was stationary earlier today to seaboard by later on this weekend. I am pretty good with these numbers. Through this week into the weekend 4 to 5 inches of rain overall through monday. I am pretty good with these and i do not think we see a repeat of what we had today. As a hurricane gets better organized is tightens up. All the moisture around here today tries to go closer to the it is less likely to have that large mass of rain like we had today. To the next 24 hours the continue to see recon flying in with 70 milesperhour which is why we believe this will be a hurricane by later today making landfall to the east. It should shift to the east tonight not because of a change in motion that because the center we will continue to keep our eyes on where this is going because you never say never in the tropics. Tomorrow afternoon start to see coastal flooding with fans of rain and the chance of a few isolated tornadoes. I think the chance begins to drop a little bit. There is a lot of consensus on the models here. Anything that changes we will have it for you but at this concern is for the next 24 hours with big improvement into friday morning and afternoon. Heres the sevenday forecast with lots of rain and storms tomorrow improving on ride in the weekend back to normal with highs in the upper 80s. Tonight tough going in the rain with the mixture mixed i sure hope the buccaneer head coach got the look he wanted to determine his roster. That was a tough game to watch tonight in the first half of that was just want to forget. The offense went in the with two first downs and it look like a quarterback you would this. He forcefully did not lose possession. Especially the rip up front. Going 60 yards in the first half brown had 130 yards. The total offense for the first half with brain cure for anything to help himself in the first half with cutter. Jenkins kicked off with a pass later in the second he said 130 at the half. The second half buccaneer fans looks like we are back with perfect last week right down the middle. He was 2 for 2 with the redskins winning 2013. Looking down to 60 by september 3. Opening night set for saturday night at 7 00. They cared up with townsend and i doubt we will have any difficulties in this one.
