TAMPA, Fla. (WFLA) — Another day with frequent passing downpours is expected with a 50% overall rain chance.

Downpours will increase in coverage through the morning and into the afternoon before drying out this evening.

Drier air will filter in to the Tampa Bay area, especially north of I-4 for Wednesday. This will limit rain chances to just a 20% for a few spotty showers. With fewer showers and more sunshine, the temperatures will warm into the low 90s.

Tropical moisture will quickly stream back in starting Thursday leading to afternoon storms that drift inland.

Even higher rain chances are in the forecast for the weekend as tropical moisture pools up and fuels frequent passing downpours, once again at any time during the day.

The tropics have quieted down for the time being. Tropical Storm Fernand is still in the central Atlantic and will move north today before dissipating. There will likely be a lull in the activity for the next week or so before becoming active again by mid-September.
