Orlando, FL – February kicks off with warm temperatures across central Florida, but residents should prepare for patchy fog and rip current risks.
According to the National Weather Service, patchy fog will develop overnight into Sunday morning, particularly inland, before clearing by mid-morning. Highs will reach the upper 70s Sunday and climb to the low 80s on Monday, with mostly sunny skies. However, those heading to Atlantic beaches should be cautious, as a moderate rip current risk remains through early next week.
Looking ahead, the five-day forecast keeps temperatures in the low 80s with mostly clear conditions. Light winds will shift to the east early in the week, bringing slightly cooler nights. Fog could return Monday morning, affecting early commuters.
Drivers should use low-beam headlights and allow extra time for travel if fog develops. Beachgoers should only swim near lifeguards and stay out of the water if conditions look hazardous.
