Orlando Weather Forecast PM: July 7th, 2025

FOX 35 Storm Team Senior Meteorologist Noah Bergren is tracking a few thunderstorms returning later this week.

ORLANDO, Fla. - Tonight will be partly cloudy with isolated thunderstorms possible along the Atlantic beaches during the early evening hours.

What will the weather look like tomorrow?

Overnight lows are expected to dip into the mid-70s.

On Tuesday, expect a mix of sun and clouds, with scattered showers and thunderstorms developing after 3 p.m., mainly during the afternoon and early evening.

What will the weather look like for the rest of the week?

Looking Ahead:

Looking ahead, chances of rain are forecast to climb heading into the weekend and early next week, with a 60% chance of afternoon and evening storms each day. Typical mid-July humidity will persist, with storms generally drifting eastward after forming inland.

There will be an influx of tropical moisture moving in from the east, which will help to bring an increase in shower and storm chances mid-week and into the weekend. In terms of the set-up for this week as a whole, it will be fairly typical of the rainy season.

Daily rounds of afternoon sea-breeze showers and storms will likely start on Wednesday and will last through the weekend.

High temperatures will hover near the seasonal average of 92 degrees.

Tracking the Tropics

The tropics remain quiet for now, and no activity is expected in the next several days. However, forecasters are monitoring a slight chance of development off the Southeast U.S. coast sometime next week.

Texas, North Carolina floods

Historic Flooding :

Historic flooding continues to have a major impact in Texas.

The remnants of once Tropical Storm Barry in the Gulf caused major rains in Texas over the holiday weekend. Top rain totals eclipsed 20 inches and more than 100 deaths, making this the largest non-hurricane flood event in terms of fatalities in the United States since the great Colorado flood in July 1976. Central Texas is known as the "Flash Flood Capital" of the country because of how prone it is to flash floods.

There has also been extreme flooding in North Carolina due to impact from Tropical Depression Chantal, which washed out streets, sent rivers into major flood stage and prompted water rescues Sunday. Some locations received as much as nine inches of rain within 24 hours.
