Orlando Weather Forecast: Jan. 23, 2024
Central Florida will see a gradual warming trend as we head into the weekend, with highs breaking into the 80s by Friday.
ORLANDO, Fla. - Breezy conditions (E 10-20 mph) will be in all locations across Central Florida tonight. There is a small 20% chance for a passing rain shower or sprinkle, but don't expect anything substantial. Intervals of clouds and some sunny breaks the next two days. A lot of rain and storms will fall across the Gulf of Mexico and Deep South, but not in Florida, thanks to strengthening east flow from the Atlantic, pushing all the precipitation away from Florida.
Tonight's low: 65 degrees | Wednesday's high: 80 degrees
BEACH FORECAST: Gusty onshore flow will keep rough seas going with a very high rip current risk. The good news is that once better weather arrives for the weekend, the rip current risk will subside Saturday into Sunday as winds will switch to offshore flow, west to east.
THEME PARK FORECAST: Honestly, not bad at all, with comfortable days, crisp nights, and minimal rain chances.
LOOKING AHEAD: Winds will shift to the southwest on Thursday night, and that really starts to warm us up by Friday. Afternoon highs of 80–85 degrees look likely through Saturday, with the warmest day of this spell being Saturday.
A cold front arrives on Sunday, but it will be moisture-starved. It is doubtful there will be much in the way of rain with it, but it will carry a large drop in temperature heading into early next week. Afternoon highs tumble into the low 60s next Monday, with 40s at night early next week. Looking ahead to February as a whole, temperature swings and wet weather look likely as we are still under the influence of El Niño conditions.
