Orlando weather: Overcast skies clear overnight, sunny Friday ahead
Orlando Weather Forecast: January 16, 2025
It will be a beautiful end to the work week as temperatures warm up headed into the weekend. But don't be fooled, our next cold front is on the way. FOX 35 Storm Team Meteorologist Laurel Blanchard breaks down the rest of the work week and the next big rain chance for Central Florida.
ORLANDO, Fla. - Skies continue to clear out through the rest of the evening and overnight as high pressure takes hold. Temperatures will drop into the 40s across the region tonight.

High pressure takes hold of the region on Friday and pushes warmer air into Central Florida, popping our temperatures up into the upper 60s with mostly sunny skies. Don't get too comfy with this warm up as our next cold front pushes through this weekend.

LOOKING AHEAD: Ahead of the cold front this weekend, our rain chances amp up and possibly bring in a few thunderstorms into Central Florida Saturday night and Sunday.

Although it will be rainy, especially on Sunday, temperatures will shoot above average into the mid and upper 70s. The main threats are heavy downpours, gusty winds and the chance of a few thunderstorms.


After the rain moves through, the cold air moves in and temperatures will tank below average once again, keeping temperatures on a cooler trend for the rest of January. This also sets off a pretty active rain pattern as we look ahead to next week.
Expect a cold front after a cold front and moisture from the Gulf pushing clouds and rain into central Florida for at least the next 2 weeks.
