ORLANDO, Fla. – We are pinpointing a warmer start across Central Florida as temperatures are in the 40s, rather than the 20s and 30s, Friday morning.

Orlando will reach a high in the upper 70s. The average high on this date is 73. The record high is 87, set in 1982.

Expect rain chances to return for the weekend, with high temperatures in the mid- and upper 70s.

We will see a front stall out over Central Florida, so there’s a chance we will see rain in Tampa during the Super Bowl. There’s also a chance that the front will wobble farther north and not be as much of an impact on the game.

Orlando has a yearly rainfall deficit of 2.13 inches.
