Tuesday's rain chances go up as scattered storms are in the forecast throughout Tuesday afternoon and evening. There is a chance for a few strong storms on Tuesday.

The storm chance remains high through the end of week due to a low pressure system moving from the Gulf and across Florida. Less stormy conditions will return during the weekend.

Afternoon highs will be in the mid 80s starting Wednesday through Friday due to the wet conditions.

Meanwhile, in the tropics, a disturbance is located east of the Bahamas. This area has only 10% chance of developing since environmental conditions are not conducive to further development as it tracks toward the northeast away from the Bahamas and Florida.
