Scattered Storms Return to Central Florida Today Ahead of a Two-Step Cooldown

Forecasters flag a two-step pattern that ends with a sharper cooldown early next week.

Overview

  • Showers and thunderstorms are expected to develop this afternoon and evening, roughly 2–9 p.m., as a cold front moves across the region.
  • Highs reach the mid to upper 80s before storms, then cooler, drier air settles in Thursday night with lows in the 50s–60s and highs near 80 on Friday.
  • Rain chances increase again over the weekend, with isolated to scattered showers Saturday and about a 70% chance of rain on Sunday as the boundary lifts north.
  • A second, stronger front arrives Monday into Tuesday with widespread rain, followed by highs in the 60s and lows in the 40s–50s Tuesday and Wednesday.
  • Forecasters note this midweek chill may be the season’s last brief cool spell and advise checking updates as timing and coverage can shift.
