Orlando Weather Forecast: Monday Night, February 24th, 2025

FOX 35 Storm Team Meteorologist Noah Bergren is tracking gloomy weather tonight with rain showers continuing and when the sunshine will return to central Florida!

The Brief

    • A low pressure system in the Gulf is bringing rainfall to Orlando and the surrounding Central Florida region.
    • After lunchtime on Tuesday, the sky will begin to clear. No rain expected in the afternoon in Central Florida. 
    • High pressure moves over Florida on Wednesday, which means abundant sunshine and a lovely day. 

ORLANDO, Fla. - Expect cloudy skies with off and on rain throughout the evening for all of Central Florida. 

Tuesday Forecast for Orlando

What to expect:

There may be some mist and drizzle lingering into the early morning hours of Tuesday. Low termperatures will be near 60 degrees by daybreak. 

After lunchtime, the sky will begin to clear and sunshine will come out for the later afternoon hours. No rain expected in the afternoon in Central Florida. Afternoon highs in the lower 70s for Tuesday afternoon.

What's causing the rainy weather?

A weak low pressure system in the Gulf is moving into Florida, bringing moisture up from the tropics. This will result in a widespread 1"-2" of rain for our region in scattered bouts of rain and a few downpours through Tuesday morning, before the system moves into the Atlantic and clear skies ensue. 

After the system departs, we'll enjoy sunny skies and warmer conditions.

Looking Ahead

What's next:

Beautiful weather returns on Wednesday! 

High pressure moves over Florida, which means sinking air in the atmosphere — clouds form when the air rises — so sinking air means abundant sunshine and a lovely day.  Afternoon high temperatures on Wednesday will be in the upper 70s.

Thursday will be warmer ahead of a front with highs near 80 degrees in the afternoon and remaining dry. A front comes through Thursday night likely without any rainfall, but will drop the temperatures heading into Friday. 

High temperatures on Friday afternoon will be near 70 degrees with a breezy NW wind of 5-15 MPH. It will get chilly Friday night into Saturday morning, with low temperatures by daybreak Saturday morning, hitting the upper 40s in most locations.

The weekend looks wonderful with dry weather, lots of sunshine, and afternoon highs each day in the mid 70s for all of central Florida.
