ORLANDO, Fla. – The hottest and driest stretch in months continues over central florida as a large ridge of high pressure continues to be the dominant weather feature.
TEMPERATURES
Starting Thursday, highs will reach the low 90s over inland neighborhoods and the low 80s for coastal communities.
Expect high temperatures to reach 90 degrees or more each afternoon through the weekend, with the hottest day Saturday (mid-90s).
Thursday, Leesburg will have the best chance to break a record high, with the 90-degree record set in 1990.
By Saturday, most reporting stations will reach record territory.
Record highs Saturday
CHANCES OF RAIN
High-level clouds will gradually clear through Thursday afternoon, while surface conditions remain too dry to produce any significant rain Friday and into the weekend.
Some isolated sprinkles may be possible Sunday afternoon due to increasing moisture ahead of the next front approaching North Florida.
WEATHER CHANGES
A weak cold front will approach the Florida peninsula early Monday, leading to a 30-50% chance of rain. Isolated storms cannot be fully ruled out.
The front is expected to move south and weaken throughout the day on Monday, with an area of high pressure building behind it.
Highs will cool slightly early next week, into the upper 80s.
