Heat, humidity continue through weekend in Central Florida with increased storms

We saw a few showers and thunderstorms pop up earlier Friday afternoon. These storms will continue to fizzle out through the rest of the evening. 

Partly cloudy skies are on tap for the rest of the overnight, with a low of 76 degrees.

THIS WEEKEND: The hot and humid weather continues. We will see temperatures in the mid-90s on Saturday and Sunday, but the humidity will make those already hot temperatures feel even hotter. The feel-like temperatures will be around 110 degrees. Afternoon sea breeze showers and storms are also possible on Saturday and Sunday afternoons.

Our winds will steadily shift to move in from the southwest, helping to crank up the thermometer. With highs in the mid-90s and elevated humidity values, our heat indices could approach dangerous levels ranging from 105°-110°. 

Be sure to stay hydrated and cool if you have any outdoor plans! Unsettled weather is also set to continue this weekend, with afternoon seabreeze showers and storms possibly occurring on both Saturday and Sunday.

TROPICS: Because the Saharan Dust is dampening the tropics, no tropical activity is expected in the near future. Thus far, 2024 has the most concentration of Saharan Dust in the atmosphere on record for July.
