Temperatures across Central Florida remain higher than normal with the mid-80s expected inland on Thursday along with a chance for afternoon rain, according to the National Weather Service in Melbourne.<\/p>\n
An east coast sea breeze will steadily move inland each day into the weekend prompting isolated to scattered showers. The NWS states there is a 20%-40% chance for precipitation Thursday and Friday, especially across the interior counties.<\/p>\n
Rain chances climb to 40-50% by Saturday in the afternoon as more moisture builds in the region.<\/p>\n
\u201cSurface heating and sea breeze\/lake breeze interactions along with cold temperatures aloft should be supportive for a few lighting strikes each afternoon,\u201d the NWS said in its forecaster\u2019s discussion. \u201cHowever, model sounding profiles suggest a limited environment for more organized convection due to weak shear and drier mid levels.\u201d<\/p>\n
Temps will hit the mid 80s in the interior and low 80s on the coast Thursday.<\/p>\n
\u201cSlightly warmer Friday and Saturday with low 80s along the coast and mid to upper 80s inland,\u201d forecasters said. \u201cLow temperatures hold mostly in the mid 60s areawide.\u201d<\/p>\n
There\u2019s still a chance for patchy fog early Thursday, and mostly north of Interstate 4, with better chances on Friday and Saturday mornings.<\/p>\n
At the beach, there is a high risk of rip currents, along with rough surf.<\/p>\n
Farther out, mostly isolated showers are forecast for Sunday and temperatures are expected to climb further into the new week hitting the mid to upper 80s west of I-95 by the afternoon while lows will be in the mid-60s.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Temperatures across Central Florida remain higher than normal with the mid-80s expected inland on Thursday along with a…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":179265,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[11],"tags":[114,266,115,139,141,140,109,221],"class_list":["post-179264","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-orlando","tag-latest-headlines","tag-local-news","tag-news","tag-orlando","tag-orlando-headlines","tag-orlando-news","tag-social","tag-weather"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/179264","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=179264"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/179264\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/179265"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=179264"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=179264"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=179264"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
