Rain showers will start just after lunch and run through the start of the rush hour, but by early evening we'll be dried out.

Heavy showers will start again overnight and last through the morning on Saturday.

We'll dry out again for a nice Saturday afternoon.

The rain should wrap-up before kickoff. You can also watch the game right here on CBS News Miami at 7 p.m.

Tropical Storm Dolly is pushing westward through the Atlantic Ocean.

Due to upper-level shear, it will likely dissipate to just a tropical low by Saturday.

When it reaches the Caribbean, it will drop rain across Puerto Rico, which needs the rain due to a drought.

The spaghetti models show it approaching Florida but curving out to sea before it arrives.
