Orlando Weather Forecast: Storms tonight & lots of weekend rains

Rain drops on the camera and some dark clouds out there, but nothing too crazy at the moment. Fox 35 storm team meteorologist Noah Berg right now. Any severe thunderstorm warning still in effect technically for another few minutes, but it looks like it's gonna get canceled early. So some good news there, but a lot of gray skies tonight, so not super clear right now, but it should clear out here before too much longer. You can see the view right now across our wall of cameras. Lots of gray skies. We had a good coverage of showers and storms south of Orlando today, so we're heading out this evening. Early evening showers dry by nine temperature 82 at 9 79 by the midnight hour. All right, so north of Orlando, the rain is pretty much done now for tonight was not as widespread or as intense as yesterday, which was the expectation to notice Flagler Volusia. It's dry Sanford Lake Marriage drying out around Orlando back towards the theme parks. Things are drying out nice theme parks. Things for fireworks tonight are good. They're saying cloud worse of the storm has passed you. It's now south of town, technically still a severe storm warning till seven. We'll see if the weather service holds that warning for the duration. Strongest wind gusts on radar now about 45 to 50 member. Officially, those warnings are for 60 plus mile an hour potential, but for at least for right now, the wind speeds have come down. They're going south on 4 41 92 through rural eastern Osceola County. So here's a track of this whole cluster. Now the Melbourne timing you see right here, that's just a downpour. In fact, there's no lighting. So downpour in Melbourne about 7 26. The core of this storm heading towards the hall junction junction about 7 37. So over the next hour, some rain into the Melbourne area, but a thunderstorm towards the hall junction. Actually, I think that warning was just allowed to be expired, which is some good news for us right now. Here's the rain today. Green is over a half an inch. Yellow is over to notice. It was not as much as yesterday. Azalea Park, about a half downtown Orlando, about a quarter Oak Ridge, about one pine nails, about a half an inch of rain from today's activity. Further to the north, we have a front, an uncommon July front that will continue to work its way south. You can see here a little area spin south of Nashville in northern Mississippi and Alabama. This will move into the gulf by the weekend, and when it does, the weather get a little more interesting. We'll talk about that in a second. Rain cooled 73 in Bethel, 75 Titus forward hasn't rained 89 Winter Haven 87 right now in Ocala. Alright, so through the evening, there go the showers and storms. The rest of the evening is dry after about 8 30 or so tomorrow, waking up sunny, hot and dry, a little bit hotter tomorrow than today. Here's 2 30. I'll stop at about 61 or two, maybe three storms tomorrow. Osceola Brevard again the bullseye, but the coverage is a lot lower tomorrow than it was out there for today, and that will be the case again for Thursday. All right, so waking up in the mid seventies, we hit 90 tomorrow at about noon high tomorrow, 96 at four o'clock rain chance in Orlando, specifically about 20% in the late afternoon. Let's talk about the weekend. High pressure over south Texas. Low pressure is gonna form up in the atmosphere over the eastern gulf. Now, remember, low pressure rotates counterclockwise. So you see the air here coming down this way here around the low, then up from the Caribbean into Florida, and we're gonna get a big push of tropical level humidity, probably the highest humidity we've seen all summer. So far, it'll feel very humid Saturday, Sunday into early next week, and there'll be ample showers and storms each afternoon and evening. In fact, here's a snippet of the radar on the eastern side of that low. This is Saturday and Sunday. Ah, lot of storms moving southwest to northeast. Notice it's a pretty widespread coverage, and when it rains, it will certainly pour this weekend. Now, within that low in the gulf, there's a teeny small chance we could see a weak tropical system form. A few days ago, the models were a little bit more keen on the idea. Now they're starting to back off, so it's no worry for right now. We'll just watch. It looks like just an enhanced couple of days of daily downpours and storms, but euro model officially gives it about a 15% chance so well, but not of a concern for right now. We'll keep you updated with the storm team. All right, so hotter the next couple of days. Rain chances really ramp up over the weekend. I wouldn't cancel your weekend plans, but definitely no guys. There's gonna be a lot of storms Saturday and Sunday. We'll be right back.
