WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — A Flood Watch has been issued for Palm Beach County starting at 8 a.m. Monday.
While a couple of storms are possible tonight across Okeechobee County and inland, we are also keeping an eye on a slow moving cold front that will bring beneficial rain across the area on Monday.
The latest timing of the front has the rain starting first in Indian River and Okeechobee Counties before sunrise before moving further south and east across the Treasure Coast and Palm Beaches around 7-8 a.m. Monday.
There will be the potential for strong storms to develop with periods of heavy rain. A Marginal, Level 1, threat for the area has been issued due to the strong to severe storm threat on Monday.
The rain will be on-and-off through early Tuesday morning. A couple of trailing showers are possible on Tuesday as the front moves east off the coast.
Common rain totals will be between 1-3 inches, but there could be isolated higher amounts over 3 inches. The front will help wash away the high humidity through the rest of the work week.
