Orlando PM Weather Forecast: April 15, 2025

A cold front is on the approach and ahead of it, conditions are warm and breezy. Meteorologist T.J. Springer has the timeline and if it brings any showers to Central Florida. Here's the latest on that and our Easter Forecast.

The Brief

    • A weak cold front will bring slightly cooler and breezier conditions overnight with a few stray showers possible, followed by drier air and sunshine on Wednesday as highs reach the upper 70s to low 80s. 
    • Warmer, dry weather returns late week with temperatures climbing near 90 by Easter weekend, increasing fire danger amid ongoing drought conditions.

What will the weather look like tonight?

What to expect:

ORLANDO, Fla. -  A weak cold front is on the approach and out ahead of it has been warm and breezy. 

That trend continues this evening into the overnight as this front slides in. Clouds will thicken just a bit with a stray shower or two possible. Sadly, most will stay dry. 

Lows look to slip back into the lower 60s across the metro with temps to the NW falling back into the 50s.

What will the weather look like tomorrow?

What to expect:

Our southern neighborhoods on Wednesday will start off with a bit more clouds and possibly a sprinkle. This is thanks to the cold front still in the vicinity. 

Throughout the AM and into the afternoon, the wind takes over from the north. Drier and slightly cooler air will sink southward, with highs in the lower 80s. 

Communities across our FOX 51 Counties will likely only top out in the upper 70s. Coastal locales will also be cooler, rising into the middle to upper 70s. 

High pressure settles in quickly, making for plenty of sunshine for the afternoon.

What will the weather look like for the rest of the week?

What to expect:

A strong ridge of high pressure builds eastbound late week and that will make for rising temperatures and more dry weather. This won't help our high fire concerns or the drought that continues to worsen. 

Highs by Friday will be back into the middle and upper 80s with temperatures closer to 90 by Saturday and Easter Sunday. It'll be bright too, so be sure you have the sunscreen handy if you're planning to be outdoors. 

Thankfully, Mother Nature won't dampen any Easter Egg hunts that could be planned for Saturday or Sunday. 

What will the weather look like next week?

What to expect:

Conditions turn slightly unsettled early next week as a system looks to move our way. Right now, chances for rain are still slim, but it's something we'll continue to monitor. 

The weather pattern is looking more active as we head into the latter half of month as multiple systems could at least bring the chance for some rain.
