ORLANDO, Fla. - Partly to mostly cloudy skies will stick around for much of our Tuesday across Central Florida.

In Orlando, plan for a high of 72°, which is only about a degree or so off from the average high of 71°. The slim chance of an isolated shower or two can't be ruled out this afternoon. Only a 10-20% chance of a brief light shower is possible.
A few hit-or-miss showers will be possible tonight. Temperatures will be mild, falling into the 50s and low 60s for morning lows.
Starting tomorrow, the features a much more active set-up that will bring wet weather and cold temperatures our way for the rest of the work week.
A cold front will help bring scattered showers and a low chance of a storm or two midweek. A 40%-50% chance of rain and storms will be in store for Wednesday and Thursday as a few rounds of off and on wet weather possible.
In terms of timing, a few spotty showers will linger into Wednesday morning. The current data suggests the highest chances will happen Wednesday after sunset and into the overnight.
Another wave of slightly lighter rain is likely Thursday morning into midday. Thursday's highs will be much cooler, only reaching the upper 50s and low 60s for highs with gusty winds.
