Good evening, Central Florida. We’re wrapping up the day for you with the most important stories you need to know and your weather outlook.<\/p>\n

Your Weather Planner<\/p>\n

A weak wind shift is dropping down the peninsula, but without moisture to work with, we are keeping rain out of the forecast. Under a mostly sunny sky tomorrow, highs will be a few degrees cooler than today, but still close to seasonable levels.<\/p>\n

We copy and paste into Saturday with a sun-filled sky and highs in the lower 80s. Another weak front drops across the southeastern U.S. over the weekend. Ahead of it, Sunday’s highs warm into the upper 80s. The front falls apart Sunday night into Monday, but may provide a sprinkle at best. No temperature changes to kick off next week, with highs in the upper 80s.<\/p>\n
