Thanks Largo!

The wind picked up before the line hit. Another nice dumping of rain here.

I was in Homosassa yesterday and drove home around 5ish - I hit a flippin monsoonal rain storm right at the Hernando/Pasco county line. I almost pulled over at one point because I couldn't see jack in front of me.

Good afternoon. A good bit of rain for many I see. Congrats to those who needed/wanted it.

Had a 10 minute downpour here earlier. Been an on/off light drip the past hour or two and looks to continue that way for a spell. My rain gauge had .55" at last check.

This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for West Central And Southwest
Florida.

.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight.

...THUNDERSTORM IMPACT...
Scattered showers and thunderstorms are expected to develop today
and move north northwestward. Locally heavy rainfall...gusty
winds...and occasional lightning will be the main hazards with any
stronger storm.

...RIP CURRENT IMPACT...
Increased wave activity will occur today as waves generated by a
tropical low over the Gulf of Mexico reach the west Florida coast.
This will lead to a high risk of rip currents this afternoon and
tonight.

...MARINE IMPACTS...
The influence of a developing tropical system over the central
Gulf of Mexico will lead to small craft advisory conditions today
and possibly tonight. Sustained winds of 20 to 25 knots can be
expected well offshore with higher gusts...especially in and
around any marine thunderstorms. The increased winds will generate
seas of 6 to 8 feet.

Good Tuesday Morning Folks!! no rain here by me this early morning,but I'm sure more will come today,so far it looks like Florida lucked out with this coming Tropical system, but stay alert anyway..one never knows huh...well I'm off to Orlando later this morning,hope no severe storms or flooding rains each way for me today....WELL Blogs COFFEE is perking for when you get here..enjoy..have a great day everyone!!

well a 50-60% chance for showers etc here today,we'll see what happens...

Morning everyone,
I got .63 in the bucket yesterday. That puts me at 8.44 for the month. Looks like we will get another round of storms today. weekend is looking great!!!

Big mess in the Gulf today

Ouch, BillsFan. We've been overcast for a couple of days now. Just 88 degrees and muggy.

Same here, nothing but overcast skies.

Hey John, I got .62" out of that fast moving line yesterday.

Wow. This little storm has some punch!! Coming your way, San. Copious rain, and the wind doesn't know which way to blow.

Depending upon the gauge you would like to use, ( Digital-.74; Analog 1"; pool-a little bit more than an inch; the nearby pws's, from .3 to .7) that's what I got. Sideways rain can do that.

Hey JR, I just heard really loud booming thunder here.  I didn't even know anything was close, but it is missing me on the west side.  :-(

Glad you were on the receiving end though!

Good early Wednesday Morning folks...well dropped my wife and daughter off at Orlando airport yesterday, no problems other than a few sprinkles and heavy traffic but only saw 2 accidents going there,got home late and the dogs were jumping all over me yapping about hey..we're Home Alone Now !!!!.LOL...well had a few light rains here then a monsoon rain woke me up overnight,came down real heavy....its about 4am and not raining now and everything outside is soaking wet..which..i am happy about.........well Blogs COFFEE is perking for when you get here enjoy...and I'm glad..this Tropical storm is going elsewhere...Florida Lucked out with this storm huh..well have a great day everyone!!

Jenny....so far it looks like your ok,but watch out for any storms that make it there ok....

gee miss/ala area's are really getting pounded with the storms,guess there will be flooding up there. Pensacola FL area also huh,I guess the western panhandle area's being on the east side of this TS as it moves closer to land over in LA/TEX will really be getting the rains whew....we in central and south florida lucked out big time,would have been a lot of flooding concerns had it come here.

DISCUSSION AND 48-HOUR OUTLOOK
------------------------------
At 700 AM CDT (1200 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Cindy was
located near latitude 27.5 North, longitude 92.2 West. Cindy is
moving toward the northwest near 8 mph (13 km/h), and this motion is
expected to continue today. A turn toward the north-northwest and
then toward the north is expected later today and early Thursday. On
the forecast track, the center of Cindy will approach the coast of
southwest Louisiana and southeast Texas late today or tonight, and
move inland over southeastern Texas or southwestern Louisiana on
Thursday.

Maximum sustained winds remain near 60 mph (95 km/h) with higher
gusts. Little change in strength is expected today. Slight
weakening is forecast to begin on Thursday.

Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 275 miles (445 km),
mainly north through northeast of the center.

The minimum central pressure recently reported by an Air Force
Hurricane Hunter aircraft was 996 mb (29.41 inches).


HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
----------------------
RAINFALL: Cindy is expected to produce total rain accumulations of
6 to 9 inches with isolated maximum amounts of 12 inches over
southeastern Louisiana, southern Mississippi, southern Alabama, and
the Florida Panhandle through Thursday. This rainfall could cause
life-threatening flash flooding in these areas.

Rainfall amounts of 3 to 5 inches with isolated maximum amounts of 6
inches can be expected farther west across western Louisiana and
eastern Texas through Thursday. Rainfall should spread
northeastward across Arkansas and into portions of the Tennessee and
Ohio Valleys through Friday, with total rain accumulations of 3 to 5
inches with locally higher amounts possible.

WIND: Tropical storm conditions are affecting portions of the
northern Gulf of Mexico coast over the eastern part of the warning
area. These conditions should spread westward within the warning
area through early Thursday.

STORM SURGE: Inundation of 1 to 3 feet above ground level is
expected along the coast in portions of the Tropical Storm Warning
area, with isolated areas possibly up to 4 feet.

TORNADOES: A few tornadoes are possible this morning through
tonight from the western Florida Panhandle to southern Louisiana.

Tropical Storm Cindy Discussion Number 8
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL032017
1000 AM CDT Wed Jun 21 2017

Cindy has the overall appearance of a subtropical cyclone this
morning with a convective cluster just northwest of the center and
additional convection in a ragged band well removed from the center
in the eastern semicircle. However, there is more convection near
the center than earlier, so the system remains a tropical cyclone on
this advisory. Regular water vapor imagery and experimental
low-level water vapor imagery from GOES-16 show that a significant
amount of dry air is present just east of the center, and this is
likely disrupting the convective organization. Surface observations
and reports from an Air Force Reserve Hurricane Hunter aircraft show
that the maximum winds have decreased a little and are now near 45
kt. The data also show that the 34-kt wind radii have decreased
over the northeastern quadrant.

The initial motion is now 310/9. There is little change in either
the track forecast philosophy or the track forecast from the
previous advisory. Cindy is expected to turn northward and move
through a break in the mid-level subtropical ridge along the
northwest Gulf of Mexico coast. Later in the forecast period Cindy,
or its remnants, should accelerate northeastward in the westerlies
over the eastern United States.

Given the presence of the dry air near the center and its affects
on the convection, little change in strength is expected before
landfall. Cindy should weaken after landfall and eventually become
absorbed in a frontal system over the eastern United States just
after 72 h.

While the aforementioned dry air is sufficient to keep Cindy from
intensifying, it will do little to reduce the overall rainfall
threat. Heavy rainfall is expected to continue over portions of the
central and eastern Gulf Coast, which could cause life-threatening
flash flooding in some locations. For more information on the
flooding hazard, see products from your local National Weather
Service office and the Weather Prediction Center.
