Orlando weather: Summer temperatures, heat and humidity continue through the weekend
Orlando Weather Forecast PM: April 5th, 2025
FOX 35 Storm Team Meteorologist Laurel Blanchard is tracking the summer heat for the rest of this weekend and a major cool front on the way for next week!
ORLANDO, Fla. - Summer will be on full blast with both the heat and humidity through the end of the weekend. The hottest day is expected on Sunday, with temperatures in the mid-90s.
What will the weather look like for the rest of the weekend?
What To Expect:
We really turn up the heat as we wrap up the weekend.
Temperatures normally this time of year are in the low-80s, but we will be making a run to the mid-90s on Sunday.
Summer will be on full blast with both the heat and humidity. Partly-cloudy skies and breezy conditions are forecast, so it will be a perfect day to spend outside. Stay hydrated and wear sunscreen.
Sunday night will be partly-cloudy and breezy, with lows in the upper 60s and lower 70s.
When will the rain arrive?
What's next:
The hot and humid pattern breaks in at the beginning of the workweek as our next cold front pushes through.
This cold front is associated with all the severe weather that raged across the Midwest and Southeast this week. This front will increase our shower and storm chances on Monday night and Tuesday, bringing in refreshing temperatures after the front moves through.
Highs will go from the low-90s on Monday afternoon to the 70s on Tuesday.
Rain looks to be the most widespread on Tuesday. However, we could see a few isolated storms ahead of the front on Monday afternoon. Right now, we are targeting between 4 p.m. and 8 p.m. for the rain, with a 30% chance of storms along the coast. One or two of the isolated storms could be on the stronger side.
Monday night is when the front is set to move through, and this will amp up rain chances throughout the Tuesday morning commute. This is when we'll see more widespread showers and storms.
Our FOX 51 counties, as well as the northwest Marion County area, are under a marginal risk for severe weather. We could see a few strong or isolated severe storms.
Because this is mainly happening overnight, it should limit the storm's energy, but there is still wind shear in the front, so it is something to keep an eye on.
The main threats of this weather system will be widespread heavy rain, gusty winds and lightning with the stronger storms.
FOX 35 Weather Impact Day
Why you should care:
The FOX 35 Storm Team has designated Tuesday as a Weather Impact Day.
Widespread rain is on tap Tuesday morning, which will create a wet and slick morning drive.
As the day progresses, we will see gusty winds and some heavy downpours locally, but little severe threat is expected.
Rain gradually clears by the early afternoon as a cold front slides through the region.
Afternoon highs will go from the 90s on Monday, to the mid to upper-70s for Tuesday and Wednesday.
It will feel cool, but will actually drop our temperatures back to average for this time of year, making it feel like April again.
