Pleasant weekend in store for Central Florida after another round of storms on Thursday

FOX 35 Storm Team Coverage

ORLANDO, Fla. - Storms will start to quiet down later on tonight with partly cloudy skies late. Patchy fog is possible late tonight into early tomorrow morning, especially along the coastlines. Temperatures will fall into the low to mid-70s.

LOOKING AHEAD: For the rest of the workweek, afternoon and evening storms will be possible but be very scattered – only looking at about a 30-40% chance of storms. Drier air pushes in for the weekend, so get ready for some gorgeous weather.

Things will stay dry except for stray storms. Temperatures will remain in the upper 80s and humidity will stay low. We will keep rain-free and less humid conditions around through early next week.

This trend looks to continue into the early parts of next week as well.

Tracking the Tropics

The FOX 35 Storm Team is monitoring two zones for potential tropical development.

The first is in the Southern Caribbean, where there’s a 30% chance of a system forming in the next seven days. While models vary on the possible strength and path of the storm, warm ocean temperatures in the region could lead to rapid development if a system forms.

The second zone, in the central Atlantic, has a 50% chance of forming within the week but is expected to remain in open waters, posing no threat to the U.S.
