Expect Scattered Storms Sunday in South Florida as Residents Prep for Ian

Although we are not expecting widespread rain, the chance for storms returns to South Florida.

Tropical Storm Ian will become a major hurricane in the coming days, and although the exact track is still unknown, we certainly feel much more confident about the general track that keeps the center of the storm west of Key West, and far enough west to keep the core of tropical storm winds away too.

People from Tampa to the Panhandle and maybe even farther west than that need to keep close tabs on a storm that could reach Category 4 status.

Although we miss out on full blown tropical storm or hurricane conditions, we have quite a bit of rain Monday through Wednesday and as the rain bands spiral through, tropical storm gusts are possible from time to time.

For Sunday, we could see a scattered storm for the afternoon but overall, this weekend should remain mostly rain-free. Highs will reach near 90 degrees.
