The weather service says a line of rain and thunderstorms starting about 20 miles off Clearwater Beach and stretching over Hernando County is moving northeast at 10 to 15 mph. The band of storms is reaching shore near Holiday.
The storms may produce some brief periods of heavy rain and lightning. They are expected to move across Pasco County toward Brooksville in the next couple hours. The storms are dropping three-quarters to an inch of rain an hour.
Lightning detectors show strikes clustered over southwest Pasco and extending into Hernando but mainly out in the Gulf.
The tail end of the storm line may move closer to the Tampa Bay area.
