There will still be some rain during the evening commute in some spots of Central Florida, ending during the soccer match, so be on the lookout in case of lingering showers and lightning.

As the disturbance moves offshore and farther east, scattered storms will concentrate during the afternoons and evenings over the next two days. Then, drier air will shut much of the rain down for the weekend.

There are still a few spotty showers, though, with pockets of flooding, possible today, but the risk gradually diminishes day by day into the weekend.
