We all know what that means when we get that wind its usually pretty muggy you see lot of showers working there way out of the gulf of mexico on shore. Thats exactly what youre seeing on skytower radar. More of this activity out in gulf of mexico. But notice, over the land areas, even in past 30 minutes, weve Manatee County, sarasota, also to our north. Seeing some of this activity in pasco skoupt hernando and eastern Citrus County. And more of it lined out in gulf of mexico. So coastal areas of hernando county, all way down towards say about hudson looking some of this shower activity. Pinellas county, had showers earlier. Most of that has come to an end. You see one lilley dying shower just to the east of clearwater. Maybe working its way through clearwater up towds harbor other down into bay. South of Macdill Air Force base. Most of that activity diminishing. Then stronger storms eastern Manatee County, north myakka city others out along coastal areas near sarasota county.

Winds of 40 miles an hour. Just been very slowly working its way through georgia now. And heaviest portion of this is out over water where strongest winds are. So right along the coastal areas not necessarily seeing Tropical Storm force winds, but were certainly seeing some heavy rain across the coastline of South Carolina. And this is going to be the issue. As we go through the next couple of days, because you being see right now winds are 40 miles an hour. Its working its way slowly to the north and so even by friday even though it weakens into a tropical depression its no the winds were concerned about its heavy rain this system will bring over next several days. In fact, you can see forecast along the coastal areas of South Carolina. Between about 5, up to about 7 inches of rain. So this certainly will start to cause some Flooding Issues across the coastal sections of South Carolina down into georgia as well. Lots of activity. And now weve got td number 12 way off into the eastern atlantic. Heres ian. That will continue to work tsz way to the north. Starting to lose tropical characteristic as we head into friday and then basically we say goodbye to that system. Then tropical depression number 12, this is just going to continue to work its way on the next several days. West over this will likely become karl.

Scattered showers and thunderstorms for this afternoon. Daytime high 89 degrees. A lot of activity kind of wind down this evening. But because weve got that southwesterly flow weve got to keep showers along coastal areas as we go through the i dont have night hours. Sevenday forecast, well keep that rain chance a little bit higher over the next couple of days. Then as we head into the weekend, julia weakens, we get some moisture out of here we will drop it back down to more typical 40 percent nice thing is you can look at this way at least not talking about 90, 91, 92.
