ORLANDO, Fla.- – Where’d you go summer?
The record-breaking heat of the last few days is taking a vacation behind a cold front slicing through Florida.
Orlando will reach a high near 70 degrees, well below the average high of 82 for this time of year. Winds will also be gusty at times.
With the front around, scattered showers and even a few rumbles of thunder will continue through the early evening.
By dinner, most of the rain moves out, but it will remain cloudy, breezy and cool.
The front that is bringing rain across Central Florida through the evening continues to slide to the south.
This front will be mainly stationary for the next couple of days. It will wobble a bit to the north end to the south acting as a focal point for rain across Central Florida mainly in southern zones.

On Friday, a few stray showers are around, but high temperatures return to the low-to-mid 80s.
Expect 60% coverage of rain on Saturday and a 30% coverage of rain on Sunday as this front wobbles north and south as it moves farther south and rain chances go down as it moves closer to Central Florida our rain chances go up.

Highs continue in the upper 80s through the middle and the end of next week.
