"We're looking at a pattern change, meaning we're going to be seeing a rise in some moisture. Right now, starting in our southern viewing area – Brevard, as well as Osceola counties – could be seeing some showers and southern Orange County this afternoon," FOX 35 Storm Team Meteorologist Allison Gargaro said.

The entire Central Florida area can expect to see showers and storms on Wednesday and Thursday. "We're looking at 60% coverage," Gargaro said.

The area will begin drying out Friday and into the weekend.
