ORLANDO, FL – Palm trees stand still under a hazy moon and early fog curls over calm lakes — a quiet start to what promises another unseasonably warm week across Central Florida. As Tuesday begins, daytime highs are set to surge near 90 degrees again, keeping the region locked in a summer-like pattern that feels more like mid-September than late October.
According to the National Weather Service in Melbourne, this week’s steady sunshine and light winds will continue through at least Thursday, with patchy morning fog each day before skies turn bright and cloudless. Temperatures will reach the upper 80s across Orange, Seminole, and Osceola counties, with light afternoon breezes providing only brief relief. Along the I-4 corridor, the combination of humidity and lingering ground moisture may reduce visibility for early commuters through 8 a.m.
By Thursday, a weak front slides south into North Florida, shifting winds slightly north and dropping humidity a touch. Nights will become comfortably mild, with lows in the mid-60s — still far from the cooler fall air Floridians are waiting for.
To be fair, there’s no sign yet of a cold snap or frost on the horizon, but subtle hints of change are emerging. Models show drier air possibly settling in over the weekend, which could finally deliver lower dew points and a taste of genuine fall comfort by Sunday. Until then, this week remains one for sunglasses, sunscreen, and early-morning fog caution.
