Orlando weather: Cold front ushers in coolest air of the season to begin week

Orlando, Fla. -
Tonight's low:  60 degrees | Tomorrow's high: 72 degrees

MONDAY'S WEATHER
It really does feel like fall now! Thanks to Sunday morning's front, much drier and cooler air continues to usher into Central Florida. It will be a cool night, but clouds may actually help in keeping our temperatures from dropping in further. Lows will reach the upper 50s north of I-4 (Ocala, Leesburg, Gainesville) and low to mid 60s elsewhere. A light jacket won't be a bad idea!

 

For Monday, the cool air will have a grip on our forecast. Highs are only expected to warm into the upper 60s to low 70s with a breezy NW winds at times. We could see daily records tied or broken for how cool max temperatures will be!

 

BEACHES

Another fair and breezy day along the coast. Highs will reach the upper 70s north of the Cape and low 80s to the south. A moderate rip current risk continues if you plan on getting in the water so swim carefully.

THEME PARKS

If you are in town for the parks, you have chosen a great time for it! Highs will reach the low 80s with mostly sunny skies and a pleasant NW wind.


FUTURE WEATHER

Pleasant weather will continue to begin this week. By Tuesday morning lows will fall into the upper 40s to mid 50s area-wide. We will have Impact Days in effect Monday through Wednesday with exceptionally cool weather in the mornings. Jackets will be needed! In terms of highs, we'll see highs gradually warm this week from the 60s/70s Monday to upper 70s/low 80s by Wednesday. Rain chances hold off until Friday/Saturday with our next system.

 

TRACKING THE TROPICS

In the tropics, Sean has fallen apart in the middle of the Atlantic. Behind Sean is 94L which is a potent tropical wave that could become our next tropical system in the next few days. Models indicate that this system will continue moving westward and make a close approach to the eastern Caribbean islands. From there, it seems most likely to turn north out to sea, though uncertainty exists. We will continue monitoring this system. The next name would be Tammy.
