00:00 Now here's a view of the Gulf Coast.
00:01 We've got rain from Louisiana
00:03 all the way to Florida,
00:05 but there's also a pocket of moisture
00:07 out here in South Florida into
00:09 areas near Miami Broward County.
00:11 If you look at the last hour,
00:13 you can actually see near in Coral Springs.
00:16 There was a flash flood warning
00:18 that was in effect.
00:20 It just expired as of just minutes ago,
00:23 but this is the kind of thing we're
00:25 going to be seeing really for the
00:27 next 24 to 36 hours.
00:29 If you do live anywhere,
00:30 West Palm Beach down to Fort Lauderdale,
00:32 Miami,
00:33 just be ready for water over the roads
00:35 and we know how dangerous it can be.
00:38 We all we just saw some video from today
00:41 of some flash flooding here in
00:43 the Fort Lauderdale area.
00:45 The forecast for the next three days here,
00:47 folks,
00:48 if you live in the Miami area,
00:50 we've got rain and heavy at
00:51 times here into Miami tomorrow.
00:53 The worst of it will be in the
00:55 afternoon and tomorrow night where
00:57 maybe a few inches of rain could fall.
00:59 And then Thursday we've got seven.
01:01 We've got thunderstorms in the forecast,
01:03 and then we finally dry out in
01:05 South Florida by Friday.
01:06 But we are right at the beginning
01:08 here of a very wet period,
01:10 and it could be dangerous here in the
01:12 Miami Fort Lauderdale areas, West Palm Beach.
01:15 And if you look at the forecast through
01:17 Thursday, this takes us through,
01:18 say, the next 48 hours.
01:20 We have more rain to be had across
01:22 the central Gulf Coast across the
01:24 Florida Gulf Coast and also we have
01:26 some low pressure is expected to
01:28 form right off of the Southeast
01:30 Coast of Florida moving forward.
01:32 And check out the rainfall forecast here.
01:34 Remember some of this rain has already
01:36 fallen. This is a five day forecast for
01:39 rain that started on Sunday and will
01:41 last through Thursday.
01:42 We've updated our forecast here
01:44 for Southeast Florida,
01:45 and if you look at the key up here,
01:48 8 to 12 inches could fall in areas near
01:51 Miami, especially just north of Miami.
01:53 And of course that would be devastating
01:55 for a big city like that.
01:57 It's really hard for the water
01:59 to drain out that fast,
02:00 especially when it comes down
02:02 in thunderstorm form.
02:03 So check it out here folks around Miami.
02:05 We've got the area that is focused on for
02:08 possibly as much as 8 to 12 inches,
02:10 and this is through Thursday,
02:12 so there will be rounds of rain.
02:15 Now that will just continue
02:16 to inundate us here,
02:17 so we want to take it easy on the roads
02:20 and just be mindful that if you're
02:22 caught in a heavy rainstorm down
02:23 there in South Florida for the
02:25 next few days,
02:26 be extra careful because it could
02:28 be worse than a usual one.
02:29 Put it that way.
02:30 And if you look at the radar picture,
02:33 we've got some heavy downpours out
02:34 there across the lower Mississippi
02:36 Valley. Beneficial rain and also you
02:37 see the heavy rain happening currently
02:39 into South Florida moving inland
02:40 from the East Coast of that state.
02:42 And as we head through this Tuesday night,
02:44 it's cool in Tennessee.
02:45 It's mild in Florida and in between
02:47 you've got rain in those Gulf Coast
02:50 states where we do need it.
