Orlando weather: Warmer conditions into the afternoon

ORLANDO, Fla. - TODAY: Despite the chilly temperatures this morning, we'll see a dramatic warm-up this afternoon across Central Florida. Highs will reach the low 70s near the coast and will be closer to the mid 70s further inland. We'll stay rain-free and clear today with abundant sunshine in the works.

MONDAY: Let the warm up begin! Partly cloudy skies on tap for your Monday as temperatures warm back up into the upper 70s. Monday morning will be cool so you may need the extra layer through the morning as you head out the door with temperatures in the mid to upper 50s.

LONG RANGE: Back in the low 80s on Monday and Tuesday with partly cloudy skies. But strap in! We are in for a temperature rollercoaster this week.  A cold front will push through our region on Wednesday with showers, gusty winds and the possibility of a few rumbles of thunder. Then we get thrown back into highs in the 60s and lows into the 30s and 40s to wrap up the work week with clear and cold conditions. By next weekend, temperatures will be back to average for this time of year int he low to mid 70s.
