ORLANDO, Fla. – Hot temperatures and spotty shower and storm chances are on the way for our Saturday across Central Florida. Highs today will be just a degree or two above normal, climbing into the mid 80s along the coast and into the low 90s inland.\u00a0<\/p>\n
A 30% chance of isolated showers and storms are expected, mainly this afternoon. A few isolated downpours can’t be ruled out this morning, especially near the coast.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Higher chances will begin at around 1:00 p.m. – 2:00 p.m. , with chances peaking between 4:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Areas near the I-75 corridor will have the best chances of seeing rain and storms. However, a few quick downpours can’t be ruled out closer to the I-4 corridor. Any lingering showers will fade after sunset this evening.<\/p>\n
What will the weather look like tonight? <\/p>\n
What to Expect:<\/p>\n
Mild, mostly dry, and slightly more humid tonight. Sunday morning lows will fall into the upper 60s and low 70s.<\/p>\n
Looking ahead <\/p>\n
What to Expect:<\/p>\n
Higher chances of showers and storms will develop Sunday across Central Florida. A 60% chance of afternoon and evening scattered rain and thunderstorms will be possible tomorrow, but don’t plan for a washout.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Heavy rain, downpours, and lightning will be possible starting at around 1-2pm and will last through around 8pm, before eventually fading into the late evening hours.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Temperatures will hold steady next week a degree or two either side of 90. It appears that next week could begin what looks to be a start to the rainy season and a more summer-like pattern.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sea-breeze driven daily downpours and storms will be possible just about every afternoon next week.<\/p>\n
