ORLANDO, Fla. – High pressure over Central Florida gives us another dry, mostly sunny day to begin the week.
Temperatures will hover in the 60s to low 70s along the coast early on, warming into the low to mid-80s, under mostly clear skies.
Winds from the north will shift toward the northeast by the afternoon and may gust past 15 mph near the shore.

Most of the week will remain mainly dry before a weak cold front arrives Thursday. This front could bring a little more moisture with a few spotty showers along the coast.
Temperature trends stay nice, with daytime highs in the low to mid-80s and overnight lows in the 60s to low 70s.
Beach & River Forecast
Even as the sun shines, rip currents pose a high risk up and down the Atlantic beaches.
Further inland, the St. Johns River point at Astor is forecast to remain in moderate flood stage for the remainder of the week. Upstream locations such as Deland, Sanford and Geneva are currently in action stage.
