Soggy weekend: Cloud cover, rain across Central Florida keeps temps under 90

It was a soggy Saturday across a good portion of Central Florida.

Channel 9 meteorologist George Waldenberger said high rain chances were expected across Central Florida all afternoon thanks to a weak upper level disturbance just off the coast.

With that rain, he said, came threats of lightning and downpours as well as the potential for isolated storms and damaging wind gusts.

Portions of Volusia County were put under a flood advisory around lunchtime.

Waldenberger said the storms were expected to diminish around sunset.

Overall, Channel 9 meteorologist Brian Shields said there was a 70 percent chance of rain across the area and a high of 88.

Shields said lows are expected to reach 75 overnight.

Storms will linger through Sunday. Around 50 to 60 percent of Central Florida is expected to receive measurable rain. Lightning, gusty winds and torrential rain are the main threat Sunday. Some spots could also receive 1-2 inches of rain.

High temperatures during the weekend will be closer to average, seasonably hot, in the low 90s and lows in the mid-70s. It will feel muggy. Heat indices will make the temperatures feel as if they were in the mid-90s, but some of the storms will bring some 'rain-cooling' relief momentarily.
