ORLANDO, Fla. – Central Florida is heading into a golden stretch of fall weather — bright skies, gentle breezes, and comfortable warmth ideal for outdoor plans. After several humid days, drier air will take hold through the weekend, setting up perfect conditions for theme park visits, I-4 travel, and early Halloween decorating.
According to the National Weather Service in Melbourne, high pressure building over the Southeast will keep skies clear and winds light through Saturday. Temperatures will stay in the low to mid-80s, with crisp mornings in the mid-60s — a refreshing break for runners, festivalgoers, and anyone working outdoors.
By Friday, sunshine will rule the region from downtown Orlando to the Space Coast. East and northeast winds around 10 to 15 mph will help cut humidity, making for comfortable afternoons across Orange, Osceola, and Seminole Counties. Drivers can expect smooth, dry commutes along I-4 and State Road 408, with excellent visibility for late-day travel.
Saturday remains picture-perfect for pumpkin patch visits and fall festivals, including events in Winter Park and Lake Eola. Rain chances stay near zero until late Sunday, when a weak front may bring brief showers north of the metro area.
Residents are urged to stay hydrated during peak afternoon heat, keep pets shaded, and prepare early for next week’s slightly warmer trend.
