Here's what you need to know about Central Florida's weather for the rest of the week:

  • 70% chance of rain Tuesday, then 40% for the rest of the week
  • Heavy afternoon storms possible over interior Central Florida
  • Hurricane season officially began Monday

Plentiful moisture around the area, along with the east coast sea breeze, will help to produce more showers and storms through the rest of this week. We ramp those chances up a bit Tuesday, with a 70 percent storm coverage, then back to 40–50 percent through Friday.

Be on the lookout for strong storms with very heavy rain, hail, and occasional strong wind gusts.

Daytime highs will remain in the mid- to upper 80s during the afternoon, with 90s in store this weekend. Overnight lows are expected to remain quite mild and muggy, with low 70s in the extended stretch.

We will be keeping an eye on disturbed weather potentially developing near the Yucatan Peninsula over toward Cuba. Current models and projections take this up through the Florida straits and out over the Bahamas, but we will keep a very close eye on it.
