"Overnight, brief scattered showers remain possible while you're trying to sleep," said meteorologist George Waldenberger.
Those who are planning on heading to the beach are urged to stay out of the water or swim near a lifeguard. The risk for rip currents will remain high. Also, the coast will get a slightly better chance of passing showers. 
"Monday carries a high chance for rain, at 70%, with scattered rain hitting some areas for the morning commute," Waldenberger said. "If you miss out on the heavier rains on Monday and you need some, don't worry. Tuesday and Wednesday are bringing a chance for rain, as well."
A cold front will shake up the atmosphere and produce storms starting Tuesday through Wednesday. We desperately need rain. September was a very dry month, Orlando only received about 2 inches of rain, when on average we get about 6 inches. October has also been dry so far.
