Rainy season ends with lingering drought despite October downpours, November flooding

The 2026 rainy season may be over climatologically, but uneven rainfall has left different parts of Florida heading into the dry season under very different conditions. This article also examines the early November deluge that hit parts of Florida. Florida's 2026 rainy season ended with sharp rainfall differences across Central Florida, North Florida, and the Panhandle. While some areas saw unusually heavy October rainfall, others entered the drier months still facing significant precipitation deficits. According to the National Weather Service (NWS), the transition also brought cooler temperatures and lower humidity as fall cold fronts began replacing summer's daily thunderstorms.

Rising St. Johns River the latest threat from historic Central Florida flooding

Volusia County did not experience the rainfall that hit Brevard County and other areas to the south. Because the St. Johns River flows north, however, county officials say much of that water will eventually make its way into Volusia, potentially spilling into roadways and onto private properties. The county is urging anyone living near the river to fill sandbags and stock up on several days’ worth of household supplies. Near Lake Beresford in DeLand — which is connected to the St. Johns River — water has already crept well beyond its normal shoreline onto nearby properties. Volusia County officials say the impact will be felt most toward the end of the week, and they are urging residents to begin making preparations now.
