You had better get outside early today because rain is coming this afternoon, according to Megan Hatton, meteorologist for News Channel 8.Published: January 6, 2013
There will be some sun early this afternoon, but we should see rain by 6 p.m. and isolated thunderstorms by 9 p.m., she said. There is a 30 percent chance of showers for the area at 1 p.m., but that rises to 60 percent later this afternoon.
The day started with a heavy fog advisory, which expired at 9 a.m. Visibility was down to a quarter mile in Plant City and Lakeland, and a half-mile in Brandon and Sarasota, she said.
The morning commute Monday also promises to be soggy, she said, with a 40 percent chance of rain.
