A tropical wave associated with Invest 93L is expected to cross central Florida on Tuesday, bringing intermittent showers, tropical downpours, and thunderstorms. The Florida Space Coast and central Florida will experience gusty squalls and waves of rain activity, with rainfall totals ranging from around 1 inch to isolated areas receiving up to 2 inches. Some areas, particularly near Lakeland, have already seen 8 to 10 inches of rain, raising concerns about potential flash flooding. While the weather pattern resembles typical mid-summer storms, there is a possibility of isolated severe storms, including brief tornado warnings. Meanwhile, in Arizona, scattered showers and thunderstorms are forecast for the afternoon and evening, especially east and southeast of Phoenix and in Pinal County. These storms carry a low chance of severe impacts but may produce brief heavy downpours and gusty winds.
Scattered showers and thunderstorms will be possible later this afternoon and evening. Brief heavy downpours and gusty winds will be the main threats. #azwx https://t.co/PXaRmUzJIb

Rain ahead... On this Tue. 7/15, we may face flash flood issues this afternoon with some models suggesting 6"-10" of rain are possible in a few areas. Most areas will get 1"-3". Yesterday, we got 8"-10" near Lakeland, so it's all possible as this tropical low moves thru Florida. https://t.co/edvhJMdChz
