Not so Sunshine State
Rounds of rain for Florida

While October typically marks a transition to drier weather in Florida, the first full week of the month is kicking off with heavy rain. But how much rain are we talking about?

The WeatherRadar paints an interesting picture across parts of north and central Florida, where a slow-moving front will interact with tropical moisture to bring a stretch of wet weather.

A slow-moving front will bring rounds of showers and storms to north and central Florida.

With multiple rounds of heavy rain in the forecast over the next few days, cities like Jacksonville, Fla., could see up to 8 inches of rain this week. The average rainfall in Jacksonville, Fla., in October is just over four inches.

Flash flooding is possible as rain continues over already inundated areas. Make sure your Weather & Radar app alerts are on.
