Orlando weather: System to bring Central Florida rain, storms midweek

What will the weather be like tonight?

What to expect:

ORLANDO, Fla. - Expect partly cloudy skies Monday night with temperatures falling into the mid-upper 50s by Tuesday at daybreak.

What will the weather be like later this week?

Tuesday

Mixed clouds and sun with a small chance of a rain shower here or there, highs warmest along I-75 near 80, somewhere in the mid 70s around Orlando.

Rain expected on Wednesday

What to expect:

We have made Wednesday a FOX 35 Weather impact day. 

A strong cold front remove across Florida that will bring gusty winds, some showers and storms, and a low risk for a severe storm or two to central Florida.

Winds will be gusty all day Wednesday outside of any actual rain or storms -- winds will be from the southwest 10 to 25 miles an hour with gusts 25 to 40 miles an hour.

A line of showers and storms will come through in the midday into the afternoon with some downpours and lightning in many areas. Along the line, there is a chance for a brief tornado or a severe storm, especially along in north of the interstate 4 corridor. South of the I4 corridor the storms and the line will start to weaken considerably.

Looking ahead:

Thursday will be substantially cooler with gusty northwest winds and mostly sunny skies and afternoon highs in the mid 60s. It will be cool Friday morning with lows in the mid 40s!

Unfortunately, for the final day of the Arnold Palmer invitational in Orlando this weekend, it does look like it will be at least some chance of rain and storms. How much rain and storm activity in specifically what time of the day Sunday remains unknown, but we will work on that as we get closer.
