Orlando AM Weather Forecast: Slightly Lower Storm Chances Sunday, Heat Holds
More storms are in the forecast today but with some drier air aloft, storm chances come down a touch. Meteorologist T.J. Springer times them out and lets us know when we see higher rain chances.
Get ready for another hot day with a chance of evening showers.
Central Florida will experience temperature highs in the low 90s along the Atlantic coast and mid to upper 90s inland. These temperatures will remain high throughout the day, but once the sea breezes collide, expect rain to develop across our area.
More heat and humidity
Temperatures will stay above average as our steamy June continues.
Highs on Sunday top out in the middle to upper 90s with the humidity making it feel much worse. Heat indices look to rise into the lower to middle 100s with some isolated spots in the upper 100s. Even hotter conditions develop on Monday with temps chasing the century mark.
We could see some Heat Advisories issued across parts of the area.

Storms Sunday evening: When will we get rain?
The sea breeze collision drives our storm chances up on Sunday afternoon, with storm chances rising after 2 p.m. or so.
We'll see more coverage of storms around 5 p.m. when the collision happens across the heart of the viewing area.
A couple stronger to even severe storms are possible with gusty winds and small hail. Frequent lightning and torrential rain would accompany the stronger storms as well. Sunday's chances come down to 40% thanks to a bit more dry air in the atmosphere.
Storm chances later in the week
The rainy season pattern holds through the first half of next week, but we see some enhancement of our rain chances as a front stalls across the region.
Storm chances spike to around 80% on Tuesday, but they do come down later in the week. This is caused by a dominant onshore flow, keeping higher rain chances focused near the Gulf. Chances lower to around 30% on Thursday and Friday.
Looking forward to the holiday: July 4
The dominant east-to-west flow across the Peninsula starts to change to more of a southeast direction, which should help our sea breeze collision happen closer to the heart of the state.
For Central Florida, that means increasing rain chances. Chances right now are around 50%.

Tracking the tropics
An area of low pressure looks to form over the next week, on the tail end of a frontal system. This front looks to stall out across the southeast, keeping things unsettled as a whole. This area of low pressure does look to remain weak as it works west toward the southeast Coast throughout the week.
