Orlando Weather Forecast: June 27, 2023
Orlando and Central Florida will see the dry weather pattern continue through the weekend with heat indexes in the triple digits.
ORLANDO, Fla. - Tonight's low: 77 degrees | Today's high: 96 degrees
Main weather concerns: Hot high pressure is in control of the local forecast. This means sizzling summer heat with highs hitting in the mid-upper 90s, factor in humidity, and that puts the "feels like" temps or heat index in the 102-107 degree range. Sunshine dominates with a slight increase in afternoon clouds.
Rain chances are quite low, 20% or less, and primarily after 2-3 p.m. this afternoon through sundown. Lows will still be warm in the mid-to-upper 70s. Residents and visitors alike should remain mindful of the high heat. If you head outdoors, hydration, sunscreen, and periodic breaks indoors are certainly good ways to avoid heat-related illness.
BEACHES: The beaches look great, but you should take precautions in the high heat. Sunshine dominates so don't forget the sunscreen and remember to hydrate yourself. Surf rolls in at 1-3' with an Easterly swell in the water. UV Index stands at 10+ which means sunburn can occur quickly. Protect yourself!
THEME PARKS: Rain chances will be lower with only a very isolated storm possible this afternoon after 2 p.m. Any storm could still produce some heavy rain and lightning so be ready to head indoors. It will be toasty with highs in the mid-90s and lots of sunshine otherwise-generally dry conditions.
The heat index hits around 105 degrees park side. Don't forget sunscreen and hydrate.
OUTLOOK: Rain chances become more isolated to begin the week with many dry through Tuesday. Rain chances become more seasonal by midweek with daily afternoon storms returning.
Our heat will also be on the rise this week with highs returning to the mid-90s. Heat index values will reach 105+ inland, so it'll be important to take breaks from the outdoors and stay hydrated! Keep with the FOX 35 Storm Team for more on the forecast.
TRACKING THE TROPICS: The remains of Cindy could redevelop over the next seven days. If it does, the name stays the same. It will pass over the Bermuda area on its journey closer to Nova Scotia Canada.
