ORLANDO, Fla. — Gorgeous weather to kick off the work week with sunny skies and comfortable temperatures!

Highs Monday afternoon reached the mid to low 70s; exactly where we should be for early February. High pressure will keep us quiet through mid-week, but temperatures will continue to warm-up. This is ahead of a system that will bring a few changes Thursday.

Clear skies will continue through the overnight hours. Temperatures will not be as cold as the past couple of nights, but still a bit chilly with lows around 50 degrees.

Under a mostly sunny sky Tuesday we’re forecasting highs in the mid to upper 70s. By Wednesday, a surge of warm and sticky air works into the peninsula on a south-southeast breeze. We’ll wake up with patchy areas of fog then watch as some higher clouds move in late. We heat into the upper 70s and lower 80s.

An approaching front Thursday helps crank up our wind with gusts over 20 to 25 mph. Under a mix of clouds and sun highs still soar into the low to mid-80s. A line of storms along the front to our west will slide across the peninsula Thursday night. These storms may be strong enough to produce damaging wind gusts and an isolated tornado.

We may see a lingering shower very early Friday, but drier and cooler air move in with highs in the lower 70s.

Beach and Surf Conditions

Very poor surfing conditions stick with us Tuesday thanks to minor windswell traces and wave heights of only one to two feet. Good news if you’re swimming though because our rip current threat stays low. You’ll have to brave the chilly Atlantic water with sea surface temps hovering in the mid-60s along our east coast.
