Orlando, FL — Golden light spills across palm tops and quiet lakes this Friday morning as Central Florida wakes to another warm start. Dew clings to windshields, a sure sign that humidity is slowly building back ahead of the next weather shift.
According to the National Weather Service in Melbourne, Friday will stay sunny and breezy, with highs near 83°F and a steady northeast wind gusting up to 25 mph. The air remains dry, keeping rain chances near zero through Saturday — ideal for outdoor plans, late-October festivals, or a beach day along the Space Coast.
By Sunday afternoon, however, change is in sight. Clouds increase across the region as moisture pushes inland from the Atlantic, bringing a 20–30% chance of showers by evening. The first raindrops could reach the I-4 corridor between Orlando and Daytona Beach before sunset, followed by a few isolated thunderstorms Monday.
Temperatures hold steady in the low-to-mid 80s through early next week, but a gradual cooling trend may follow as a weak front approaches midweek — hinting at Florida’s first touch of fall air by late October standards.
For now, residents should enjoy the dry stretch but keep weekend outdoor plans flexible. By Sunday night, slick roads and brief downpours could slow travel for those returning home.
After all, even in late October, Florida weather loves a quick turn — and this weekend may be no exception.
