"We are pinpointing a stalled front across Central Florida," News 6 meteorologist Troy Bridges said. "That stationary front will give us a chance for showers and even a couple of thunderstorms into the afternoon and evening."

Bridges said there's a moderate risk of severe storms.

"There is the chance for a couple of storms, with strong winds and lightning," he said.

The high will hit 82 Thursday, with rain chances dropping to 20 percent. Overnight lows will be in the mid-60s.
