Florida – Morning sunlight glints off wet pavement in Orlando as temperatures hover around 70°F and humid air lingers over Central Florida. The region is heading into a warm, breezy stretch, perfect for travelers and outdoor plans — but a December cooldown is already on the horizon.
Through Saturday, expect mostly sunny skies, highs reaching the upper 70s to low 80s, and light north winds. By Sunday, a weak cold front begins slipping south, bringing scattered showers and a brief drop in humidity. Post-Thanksgiving travelers heading north on I-75 or I-95 should note changing weather patterns into early next week as cooler, drier air settles in.
Friday will be sunny and calm, ideal for outdoor decorating or local events. Saturday stays warm, topping out near 72°F, but clouds start building late in the day. By Sunday, scattered rain chances rise to about 30%, mainly during the afternoon.
Meteorologists are now eyeing a broader pattern shift starting December 2–6, as a cold trough dives south through the U.S. That system is expected to pull cooler air into the Southeast, possibly knocking Florida highs back into the low 60s and upper 50s — a noticeable change from the recent tropical warmth.
