ORLANDO, Fla. — Scattered showers and storms again developed across the area Saturday, but much of the activity has exited Central Florida. Expect another quiet overnight with just a few clouds and morning temps in the low to mid 70s.

Father’s Day will also feature scattered storms. Expect quiet conditions in the morning, with activity developing in the midday and afternoon hours.

Highs for Father’s Day will be in the upper 80s and low 90s.

Slightly higher rain chances are expected to start next week. Increased moisture will work into the area, resulting in slightly higher coverage of showers and storms.

Highs Monday and Tuesday will be in the mid to upper 80s.

Rain chances begin to tick down for the middle of next week. Scattered showers and storms are still likely during the afternoon on Tuesday and Wednesday, but coverage will be lower. Highs both days will be in the mid to upper 80s.

Even more dry air moves in to end the week. Just a few widely scattered showers are expected for Thursday and Friday, with highs in the low 90s.

Right now, next weekend looks warm and dry with sunshine and highs pushing into the mid 90s.

Beach and Surf Conditions

Even though we develop an onshore flow, a small east-southeast trade swell and wave heights of one to two feet remain in place this Father’s Day weekend. Our rip current threat slowly climbs back into the moderate category, so use caution if you’re planning a swim, and do so near an open lifeguard stand.

We’ll have enough sun around to push our ultraviolet index into the extreme range. This means under 10 minutes to start a sunburn. Don't forget the sunscreen, and reapply.

Tropical Update

We still have no issues to talk about in the tropics. There are no developing systems in the Gulf, the Caribbean or the open waters of the Atlantic.

No major activity is expected the next 5 days.

Hurricane season runs through November 30.
