WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — The strong winds are causing rough surf and dangerous rip currents, so a high surf advisory remains in effect for all the Atlantic coasts.
On the Treasure Coast, a wind advisory remains in effect along with a coastal advisory because of the strong onshore winds. There could be some flooding in low-lying areas on the coast and beach erosion.
Expect more showers this evening and tonight.
Peak rain times appear to be Wednesday afternoon into Thursday. We are not expecting flooding but will have to monitor. A couple more inches of rain could happen through Thursday morning.

This week's wet pattern is due to a low-pressure system in the Gulf, but this is much-needed rain and will help alleviate the drought conditions.
Forecast highs will be in the upper 70s and low 80s, then the mid-80s by the end of the week. Then lower storm chances for the weekend with hotter temperatures.
