Flood Watch extended for mainland South Florida through Wednesday evening due to Eta’s feeder bands possibly producing some additional downpours. This could cause more flooding around areas that don’t need anymore rain.

Eta is slightly stronger in the southeastern Gulf of Mexico and producing tropical storm conditions over western Cuba. On the forecast track, it is set to move back northward on Wednesday. Right now, it will possibly be a tropical depression making landfall this Sunday between the Panhandle of Florida to Louisiana.

As Eta makes its move toward the Gulf coast, a tail of moisture will be left behind. Therefore, scattered showers and storms possible through early Thursday. High pressure over the western Atlantic builds late week to bring drier air for the all important weekend!
