Orlando weather: Increased clouds, scattered showers possible for the weekend

Tonight's low: 68 degrees | Tomorrow's high: 86 degrees

Main weather concerns: We're looking at an overall fine weekend, but it'll be noticeably muggier and cloudier. There may be passing showers or brief downpours with a 20%-30% chance of rain as soon as daybreak on Saturday. This is part of a pattern change for a much more active, much stormier middle and end of November. Our next weather-maker midweek is an upper-level disturbance that looks to bring scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms to the region, representing the first significant rain chances in several weeks.

EDC Orlando 2023 Forecast: 

BEACHES:

It will be a great day at our Central Florida beaches. Highs near 81 degrees with sun and clouds. The use of good sunscreen will be necessary. Surf will be in the 1-2' range (ENE Swell) with a moderate rip current risk. Winds are light and variable early with an onshore breeze developing by pm. Water temps are near 70 degrees in Flagler and Volusia Counties, warmer in the Brevard area, and near 77 degrees.

THEME PARKS:

Enjoy the sunshine and low humidity at the theme parks today. Highs hit in the upper- 80s with only an isolated chance (10%) of a passing shower. Keep your hat and sunglasses handy.

OUTLOOK:

High temps decrease as we head into the weekend. The mid-80s on Saturday, the lower 80s in place by Sunday. Rain chances bump up both days to 20% in a few showers as a front draws closer to the area. Rain chances hold steady at 20% or so through next Wednesday. Thursday and Friday could see much higher rain chances as an area of lower pressure courses through Northern Florida. 

At this time, it appears that a soaking rain could be developing late next week, something that will certainly be beneficial for the region.

TROPICS:

The tropics look quiet currently. Watching the Southwest Caribbean closely over the next several days as low pressure could be developing in that area. Most models keep whatever develops away from the U.S. for the long term. Stay with the FOX 35 Storm Team for the latest hurricane season that ends on November 30.
