Parade of fronts: Cooler changes through Thanksgiving. Here’s what to expect

Noticeably cooler weather arrives Thursday

ORLANDO, Fla. – If you’ve been enjoying the warm stretch across east Central Florida, don’t get too comfortable, as this week’s weather brings some cooler changes!

Sunday

A weak front over the Southeast will drift slowly south into North Florida and eventually slide into northern parts of Central Florida by late afternoon. As it settles in, a few high clouds will build in.

Rain Chances Sunday

Most of the day stays dry, but a developing sea breeze and added moisture may spark a few isolated showers or sprinkles late this afternoon and early evening, especially northeast of Orlando near the front.

Rain chances stay low at about 20%. Highs today will still run in the mid 80s with lows in the 60s.

Monday and Tuesday

Conditions will remain similar as we are expecting another few warm and mostly-dry days. Highs both days remain in the low 80s with lows in the 60s with a chance of overnight patchy fog.

Changes Arriving Soon

Late week-weekend

From Wednesday through the weekend, the weather pattern gets busier.

A stronger cold front will begin to pass through Central Florida late Wednesday night into early Thanksgiving, bringing a low chance of rain (20-30%).

Thanksgiving Forecast

Once it pushes through, drier air filters in and shuts down rain chances into Friday. But this cooldown won’t last long as high pressure builds back quickly by early next week.

Temperatures will warm into the low to mid 80s on Wednesday ahead of the front, but your Thanksgiving forecast looks noticeably cooler.

Highs on Thursday drop into the low to mid 70s near and north of Orlando, with upper 70s to near 80 farther south.

Northerly winds on Friday will cool things even more, with highs ranging from the upper 60s along Volusia County to the low and mid 70s southward.

Black Friday Morning

Lows Thursday and Friday nights will fall into the 50s to low 60s, and some spots northwest of I-4 could dip into the upper 40s early Friday morning.

As the onshore breeze strengthens next weekend, temperatures will gradually tick upward again, with highs returning to the upper 70s.
