ATTENTION: A TORNADO WATCH IS IN EFFECT UNTIL 11:00am ET for Franklin, Liberty, Jackson counties. This means tornadoes/waterspouts are somewhat favorable with thunderstorms that move in these counties through the morning.
MIDWAY, Fl. (WTXL) -- Tropical Storm Cindy will continue to move northeast toward the Louisiana/Texas border. That being said, heavy rain threats will continue well east of the center of circulation (hundreds of miles east).
Wednesday: Rain coverage looks likely for western counties today at around 70% (eastern half 40%). With mostly cloudy skies, expect morning lows in the mid 70s and highs in the upper 70s to lower 80s for Wednesday. Rain accumulation may reach above an inch in some spots today.
Beach and Boating forecast information and your Tide Times are below:
Thursday: Impacts from Cindy will be more scattered and less prominent as the storm moves inland. Still, enough moisture in the atmosphere with added instability from the sun can help produce scattered showers and storms. Some storms can produce heavy rainfall. Forecast lows are in the lower to mid 70s with highs in the mid to upper 80s. While skies are expected to be cloudy in many spots, more sun is expected to return.
Friday through Sunday: A return to a more seasonable pattern is expected for this period. Expect morning lows in the lower 70s with highs in the lower 90s. Skies are forecast to be partly cloudy. As we are in June (and now officially Summer), you really can't rule out isolated showers and storms (30% coverage each day).
Monday and Tuesday: More moisture with a cold front may interact with the southeast early next week. Expect lows in the lower 70s with highs in the upper 80s. Rain coverage will likely be around 50% with mostly cloudy skies.
