ORLANDO, Fla. — We didn’t break any high temperature records Tuesday, but we got close in some spots.
- Extremely low rain chances

All of Central Florida warmed into the mid to upper 80s with a few spots reaching 90 degrees. Orlando and Leesburg came in one degree shy of the old record. An approaching front will stall to our north Wednesday, but may kick some clouds in our direction as winds pick up.
Partly cloudy skies are in the forecast through the overnight hours. Temperatures will be mild, only falling into the mid to upper 60s.
Low pressure pulling away from the mid-Atlantic region will swing a trough of low pressure into the southeast, but this is forecast to stay well to the north.

We'll keep our flow from the southwest and push temps back to the mid to upper 80s and lower 90s.
Although we may have enough moisture in the atmosphere to squeeze out an isolated shower in Marion and Flagler Counties, the chance is only around 5 to 10 percent. The rest of us remain dry for at least the next week.
A shift in wind direction Wednesday and Thursday will allow temps to cool ever so slightly into the mid and upper 80s. High pressure drifts over us Friday through Monday giving us a dry sky and many of us near record highs in the upper 80s and lower 90s, with some neighborhoods topping the mid-90s this weekend.
Unfortunately, the combination of dry conditions and heat will increase our wildfire danger as we round out the month of March.
Beach and Boating Conditions
A bit of an afternoon breeze kicks up Wednesday for those of you taking a boat out on the Atlantic. Seas will push three to four feet under a partly cloudy sky. Sea surface temperatures are in the upper 60s along the Flagler and Volusia County coasts and in the mid to upper 70s along Brevard County’s coast.
