ORLANDO, Fla. – After record setting snowfall (4-8 inches) across the Florida Panhandle and a decent soaking (1-2 inches) in Central Florida on Tuesday, conditions across the Sunshine Start will begin to improve through Wednesday afternoon.

A few more rounds of cold rain showers remain in the forecast but by the afternoon, most activity on the radar will exit out into the Atlantic. If you’re one who’s craving that Florida warm sunshine, you will have to be patient for a few more days.

Strong gusty north winds will deliver another round of Arctic air holding temperatures in the 40s for the majority of the day with feels like temperatures a few degrees colder. While the weather doesn’t scream “beach day,” conditions are still hazardous, with a High Surf Advisory in place and a high risk for dangerous rip currents.

Expect a wide range of low temperatures tonight in the upper 30s northwest of I-4, mid-40s along I-4, and mid-50s further south.

THURSDAY

As for Thursday, there’s some disagreement about how the next weather system will play out. Right now, it looks like scattered showers are likely, but they’ll be on the lighter side. We’ve kept rain chances between 40-60%. With all the cloud cover, it’ll stay chilly, especially from the Space Coast northward where highs will stay in the 50s. The Treasure Coast should be a little milder, reaching the mid-60s. By late Thursday night, the showers should start to move off the coast.

FRIDAY & SATURDAY

As we head into the weekend, another blast of cold air will be coming our way. Friday should see clouds gradually clearing as high pressure moves in, but temperatures will stay well below normal only reaching the 50s.

The coldest point of the week comes early Saturday morning, with widespread low to mid-30s expected across the interior. Along the coast from Melbourne southward, expect mid to upper 30s. A decent shot for overnight frost is likely over much of the area.

Saturday should be bright but still quite chilly, with temperatures 8-10 degrees below normal.

By Sunday through Wednesday, the weather looks quieter, with no major weather systems expected to move in. After one last chilly morning on Sunday (with temperatures in the upper 30s north of Orlando), we should see more seasonable temperatures for the rest of the week with highs rebounding back into the 70s.
