Central Florida to soak in lots of rain as gloomy weather persists

Coastal flood advisories are in effect for Flagler, Volusia counties

After a gloomy and wet day on Wednesday, look for even more of the same going into Thursday.

A  low-pressure system is slowly moving eastward over the Gulf of Mexico, a low-level spin in the Florida Keys region as seen on composite radar.  

A secondary low-pressure system is anticipated to form and move northeastward over the next 36-48 hours. East-southeasterly winds are brisk, reaching sustained speeds of 15-20 mph and gusting as high as 25-30+ mph.
