We will have a few fair-weather clouds rolling in and out of our skies. Dry conditions will prevail overnight and into Friday morning with lows dropping down into the low-mid 70s.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf bCaFKM kYFPaL article-text\">Friday<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf bCaFKM kYFPaL article-text\">We are on front watch as a cold front will begin moving into northern Florida on Friday. Ahead of this front, moisture and instability will increase over our area, providing for a better chance of showers and storms Friday afternoon. After a dry start to the day with a mix of sun and clouds, spotty showers and storms will begin developing around lunchtime. More potent downpours will continue to develop near the I-4 corridor mid-afternoon and slowly push towards the north and east. These storms will linger into the early evening. Highs will once again hit the low 90s.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf bCaFKM kYFPaL article-text\">This Weekend<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf bCaFKM kYFPaL article-text\">The aforementioned cold front will cross over Central Florida during the day Saturday, once again bringing a good chance for storms for early Saturday afternoon. Once this front crosses, winds will really begin to pick up for late Saturday and into Sunday out of the NNE. Wind gusts will climb into the 25-35mph range with the highest gusts expected along the coast. This will rough up the surf and help to drag cooler, drier air back into the area. Some areas will wake up to the 60s by Sunday morning. Highs will only climb into the upper 70s to low 80s.<\/p>\n<p>Daily Forecast<img alt=\"\"  loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" role=\"presentation\"  src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/wkmg_weatherdaily.webp\" width=\"234\" height=\"50\"\/><\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf eUxjKG\">The News 6 Weather team ensures you&#8217;re always on top of the day&#8217;s weather.<\/p>\n<p>Copyright 2026 by WKMG ClickOrlando &#8211; All rights reserved.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"ORLANDO, Fla. \u2013 Higher-than-normal rain chances return to Central Florida as a cold front nears the area.
