ORLANDO, Fla. — Heat and humidity will continue to be the bigger impact in the coming days rather than our daily afternoon storms.

The coverage of storms will be around 30 to 40 percent each afternoon, but this is relatively low for this time of the year.

Afternoon highs will heat up into the low to mid 90s each day with heat indices making it “feel-like” it is around 100 degrees or hotter. Morning temperatures will be starting out in the middle to upper 70s.

Our winds will start to shift a more southerly component. This will allow moisture to increase sparking a better shot at showers and storms during the afternoons by mid to late week.

High temperatures will fall by a few degrees. They’ll return to the upper 80s and lower 90s, which is closer to normal this time of the year.

The rain chances look to back-off over the weekend. Highs will be in the low to mid-90s with morning temperatures in the middle 70s.

Beach and Surf Conditions

Surf conditions will be poor on Wednesday with a minor trade swell. Wave heights will be 1 to 2 feet. The rip risk is moderate and it is always best to swim near a lifeguard. Ocean temperatures are in the upper 70s to near 80 degrees.

Be sure to apply and reapply the sunscreen, the ultraviolet index is at an eleven. This means sunburn could happen in ten minutes or less.

If you’re boating, there will be a chance of afternoon storms, but conditions will be favorable. The winds will be out of the southeast at 5 to 10 knots. Seas will be 1 to 2 feet with a light chop on the intracoastal.

Tropical Update

The remnants of Barry continue to move through parts of the Midwest and it will be moving into parts of the Northeast on Wednesday. There are no other areas of concern in the tropics and no new development is expected in the next five days.

Atlantic hurricane reason runs through November 30.
