What will the weather look like today?

What to expect:

This evening will feature scattered showers and storms across Central Florida. Storm timing looks to see storms really firing up at 3pm and fizzling out by 10pm. Heavy rainfall, strong winds, frequent lightning and the possibility of small hail are the main threats with today's evening storms. A few thunderstorms may be on the stronger side or become severe. 

After the rain and storms fizzle out, partly cloudy skies are on tap late tonight with warm and muggy conditions.

What will the weather be like on Friday?

What to expect:

The afternoon storms are expected to continue through the rest of the workweek. Heavy rainfall, strong winds, frequent lightning and the possibility of small hail are the main threats, with a few thunderstorms possibly on the stronger side or becoming severe.

"Watch the skies and forecast if you are planning an early start to the weekend!", FOX 35 Storm Team Meteorologist Laurel Blanchard says.

Highs on Friday will max out in the mid 90s, but with the humidity, heat indices will be about 105 degrees. 

Meteorologist Laurel Blanchard is warning of the heat's impact, "Be sure to stay hydrated and listen to your body if you are planning on spending a lot of time outside!"

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

Looking ahead:

Daily storms continue into the weekend. Rain chances will become more widespread across Central Florida into next week as tropical moisture from the gulf could impact the forecast. Rain chances stay high through the start of next week. 

The main threats will be the heavy and torrential rain looking ahead. It won't be a complete washout of a weekend though! Mornings look good if you do have any outdoor plans. 

The heat and humidity will be in full force through the weekend and next week, temperatures will stay in the low and mid 90s, but with the humidity it will really feel hot outside. 

"Feels like" temperatures will be between 100-106 degrees.
