ORLANDO, Fla. — Hot temperatures continued for the end of October. In fact, Orlando and Sanford broke their old records, reaching 91 degrees.

The nicer weather continues into the weekend. A few stray showers will be possible on Saturday, with highs in the low 80s. Dry conditions and low humidity will arrive on Sunday, with temps in the mid to upper 70s.

Warmer weather does return for next week. More moisture and humidity will push back into the area, resulting in warmth and scattered showers.
