Thunderstorm chances still high Sunday

SARASOTA, Fla. (WWSB) – After Saturday’s showers, more rain is on tap for Sunday. Rain totals Saturday include 0.45” at SRQ, 1.03” at Palmetto, and 0.01” at Lakewood Ranch.

Rain chances are still high Sunday. Scattered showers is possible in the morning, with widespread thunderstorms possible for the afternoon and evening hours. A weak disturbance over Florida combined with abundant tropical moisture in the atmosphere is responsible for the greater chance of thunderstorms. The disturbance moves out to the Gulf after the weekend, so thunderstorms may be more hit-and-miss during the work week.
