Orlando weather: Rain possible this weekend ahead of next week's warm-up

The sea breeze has produced downpours and thunderstorms in eastern Seminole and Orange counties, dumping over 2inches of rain in the Bithlo area – welcome relief from this dry weather. Most spots however, have remained dry.

Tomorrow, we'll see much of the same with only a 30% coverage of afternoon downpours, resultant from the sea breeze. 

The highest chance of afternoon rain on Sunday looks to be on the I-75 corridor, so it'll be further west for the most part than today's rain.

At the beaches, expect 1-3 foot waves with a moderate risk for rip currents. 

Then the big story becomes the warm-up next week, with high temps pushing 100° late-week. 

A huge, sprawling area of upper level high pressure moves in and turns off the afternoon rain chances while baking Central Florida. 

Humidity will creep up too, providing a real preview of the summer months to follow.

The good news is this isn't here to stay. 

A cold front next weekend will bring rain, storms and cooler temps for a short time as we head into the second full week of May.
