ORLANDO, Fla. – Memorial Day Weekend is often referred to as the unofficial start to summer, and the weather is matching that sentiment!
The sea breeze will dominate our weather pattern this holiday weekend. Spotty coastal showers are expected each morning for early morning beach or boating plans.
The beaches will remain mainly dry into the afternoon as the sea breeze sparks up scattered storms around the I-4 corridor then pushing towards I-75.
Your beach/boating forecast is looking pretty good for the holiday weekend. Beaches will enjoy plenty of sunshine with a cooling onshore wind. The rip current risk is high due to that onshore flow.
There are no advisories for boaters with waves at 3-4 feet.
High temperatures will hit the low 90s each afternoon of this weekend, with heat indices flirting with 100ºF.
Increased rain chances enter the equation mid-next week as we watch a batch of Caribbean moisture flow into Florida. This deep tropical moisture will help spark higher shower coverage across the area. At this time, no tropical development is expected with this moisture.
