Orlando, FL – Central Florida continues with low rain chances for now, but conditions will begin to change later in the week as moisture increases and the risk of storms returns.
Tuesday Forecast: Isolated Showers and Storms
On Tuesday afternoon, expect scattered showers south of Orlando. A few storms could produce:
- Gusty winds up to 45 mph
- Lightning
- Brief heavy downpours
Highs will reach the mid- to upper 80s, and breezy onshore winds will keep conditions humid across the region, as reported.
Rip Current Danger at Area Beaches
Along the coast, strong onshore winds are fueling a high risk of rip currents. Authorities warn that conditions remain extremely hazardous for swimming, and entering the water is strongly discouraged.
Midweek Weather: Moisture Increases
From Wednesday through the end of the week, more moisture from the south will lift into the region. This will bring:
- A slightly higher chance of rain and isolated storms
- Coverage between 30–40%, especially in the afternoons
- Continued humid conditions despite the seasonal change
Weekend and Early Next Week
While fall officially begins at 2:19 p.m. on Monday, Central Florida will remain in a summerlike pattern. Expect:
- A mix of sun, clouds, and scattered afternoon storms
- Onshore breezes persisting
- Highs in the upper 80s to near 90 degrees
Looking Ahead
Overall, Central Florida will stay warmer than average with intermittent rain chances through the weekend and into next week. Afternoon storms will be possible most days, though widespread rainfall is not expected.
