ORLANDO, Fla. - It appears that the severe weather threat for much of Central Florida has diminished, though rainy conditions will linger throughout the evening hours, according to the FOX 35 Storm Team.

A tornado watch that was issued for nearly all counties in Central Florida expired at 5 p.m. No severe thunderstorm warnings or tornado warnings were ultimately issued for Wednesday's storms. 

Showers and isolated storms will continue to make their way across the Florida Peninsula and a couple of them could be stronger storms, the National Weather Service said. Lightning, heavy downpours, and wind gusts up to 40 and 50 mph are still possible.

A handful of counties remain under a wind advisory – Brevard, Osceola, Okeechobee, Indian River – through 8 p.m. due to sustained winds up to 25 mph and wind gusts up to 40 mph.
