Cold front possibly coming to Florida

FOX 35 Storm Team Meteorologist Allison Gargaro has the forecast

Happy weekend Central Florida!

We start the last weekend of summer on a cloudy note. We will see a mix of sun and clouds through the mid-morning hours before showers and storms arrive after 2 p.m. 

The east coast and west coast sea breeze will collide across the center of the peninsula, bringing heavy downpours, up to 2"-4", frequent lighting and gusty winds.

There is a tropical influence across the region, which will keep rain chances high through the remainder of the weekend. Due to the clouds and storms, afternoon highs will stay in the upper-80s across most of the region. It will be a humid weekend, feels-like temperatures as high as 102 degrees. 

Stay hydrated and reapply sunscreen because the UV Index is very high.
