ORLANDO, Fla. – Get ready to say goodbye to the cold weather, at least for a little bit as a warm-up is expected.
Wind gusts coming from the southwest about 25 mph will help bring in the warmer air.
Highs around the region are forecast to climb to around the mid 70s, bringing us just a touch above average.

Chance of scattered showers this evening
Much of the day will stay dry and we’re expecting a mix of sun and clouds. As we get into the evening and early overnight hours, a cold front will be pushing in from the north, bringing us scattered showers. Not expecting a complete washout, with rainfall totals ranging anywhere from a quarter of an inch to a half an inch.
Once the front passes through, slightly cooler air will settle in bringing us highs to around the low 70s for your Sunday. We should be mainly dry before the sun comes up on Sunday, leaving us with mostly cloudy skies.
Looking ahead
After a brief cooldown for Sunday — with lows near 60 and highs dipping to the low 70s — temperatures are forecast to climb again, sticking to the mid to upper 70s and even low 80s into next week with gradually-clearing skies.
