I have been hearing over the last 24 to 48 hours that the portion of central Florida I am located in has a good chance of strong to severe thunderstorms Saturday evening-overnight Saturday-Sunday.

There have also been expectation of some thunderstorms this afternooon. Then showers tonight and some strong to severe development during the course of the day tomorrow, especially during the evening and overnight hours -- Saturday night into Sunday morning.

bfez1...

I'm sorry about your parade.

Here, it is pouring one minute, then light rain, then it stops completely, then it pours again, then drizzle, then it pours again, then it stops..................freaky weather!!!

From what I understand, the severe weather has yet to come. Is this still correct, forecasters?
