ORLANDO, Fla. \u2014 Minimal rain chances are still expected across central Florida today, thanks to the persistent dry air we have seen since last week.<\/p>\n

The big change that we are tracking now is our temperatures and the heat index. <\/p>\n

High temperatures today will extend into the lower 90s and it will feel like the mid-90s at worst during the afternoon.<\/p>\n

The heat index will only increase tomorrow. Some areas could approach the upper 90s. <\/p>\n

As humidity continues to rise, we could even see some places next week with a heat index in the triple digits.<\/p>\n

That humidity will also help our rain chances increase on Monday and Tuesday. Isolated showers are expected mainly along our coast. <\/p>\n

More widespread rain will move into the area by Wednesday.<\/p>\n

These rain and thunderstorm chances will continue through next weekend. <\/p>\n

Rain totals could reach 2 to 3 inches during this period.<\/p>\n
