Orlando, FL – Central Florida has been enjoying a stretch of drier, more comfortable air, keeping afternoon storms at bay. However, weather conditions are set to change as rain chances begin to rise this week.
Tuesday Forecast: Slight Increase in Rain Chances
On Tuesday, the region will see a 30% chance of showers and storms, a slight uptick compared to the past few days. Forecasters say the drier air mass still lingers over much of Central Florida, which will help limit widespread rainfall.
Temperatures will hover around 90 degrees, a seasonal norm for mid-September in the Orlando area. Despite the relatively warm highs, the lower humidity has provided some relief, making the heat feel more manageable compared to earlier in the summer.
Midweek Weather Outlook
As the week progresses, moisture levels will increase, leading to higher rain chances. By mid to late week, Central Florida residents can expect:
- Rising humidity levels, making it feel warmer.
- Afternoon and evening showers and storms becoming more frequent.
- Temperatures continuing to stay near the upper 80s to low 90s.
Weather experts remind residents that September is still part of the peak of hurricane season, and tropical developments can quickly influence daily weather patterns in Florida.
Tropics Update: Invest 92L Draws Attention
The National Hurricane Center (NHC) has identified Invest 92L, a tropical wave in the Atlantic. According to the latest forecast:
- The disturbance has a 90% chance of developing into a tropical depression over the next seven days.
- Meteorologists are closely monitoring its path and potential impacts.
- At this time, it is too early to determine if the system will have any direct effect on Florida.
Tropical systems are common this time of year, and forecasters urge residents to stay prepared and review hurricane safety plans, even if no immediate threat is present.
What Residents Should Expect
- A gradual return of humidity throughout the workweek.
- Slightly better chances of afternoon showers each day.
- Potential updates from the National Hurricane Center if Invest 92L strengthens.
Local weather officials advise keeping an umbrella handy later in the week and paying attention to daily forecasts as conditions evolve.
