Heavy Rain, Flash Flooding For Florida Panhandle

TALLAHASSEE, Florida – The National Weather Service Tallahassee reports that the Flood Watch for the Florida Panhandle, southeast Alabama, and southwest Georgia has expired early this morning.

However, the persistent “rain train” pattern continues today and through early next week, bringing daily rounds of showers and thunderstorms with a high risk of localized flash flooding.

Residents should remain vigilant as saturated soils from recent heavy rains combined with expected new storms today and in the coming days will keep the threat of isolated flash flooding elevated.

NWS meteorologists note that scattered to numerous showers and storms are expected each day, especially across our Florida and Georgia counties. In the strongest storms, locally heavy rain, gusty winds, and frequent lightning remain possible, along with a continued high risk of rip currents at area beaches.

Conditions Amid the Rain

High temperatures are expected to reach the mid to upper 80s Fahrenheit due to persistent cloud cover and rainfall.

The ongoing wet pattern will bring scattered to numerous showers and storms each day through early next week.
