WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — The chances for rain will begin to diminish after sunset, but this wet pattern will stick around in the forecast. A very moist atmosphere will make it possible for heavy rain/storms over the next three days.

Tropical Depression Two formed in the Gulf of Mexico on Thursday afternoon and could soon become Tropical Storm Arlene.

If it does become a named storm, it will likely be short-lived as it begins a slow southward motion on Friday where conditions are forecast to become unfavorable for additional development - likely remaining offshore over the Gulf of Mexico.

We'll dry out overnight with more rain on tap for Friday afternoon.

A flood watch continues for Palm Beach County through at least Friday night.

Rain chances drop slightly Saturday and dramatically by Sunday and Monday.
