Orlando weather: Evening fog possible as warming trend builds before weekend cold front

Orlando PM Weather Forecast: January 6, 2025

The warmth continues to be the big story as we approach midweek. Meteorologist Noah Bergren times out the temperature climb upward and when our next cold front moves in. 

ORLANDO, Fla. - A few passing clouds are expected this evening and overnight, with patchy dense fog possible in some areas. 

Overnight temperatures will fall into the 50s across the region.

Looking ahead, a steady warming trend is forecast through the end of the week, with highs rising into the low to mid-80s by the weekend. 

Tuesday night's forecast

What To Expect:

Temperatures overnight will dip down into the 50s and low 60s for a few spots. Skies will turn partly to mostly clear. Patchy dense fog will likely develop late tonight and early tomorrow morning.

Wednesday forecast

What To Expect:

Unseasonably warm weather continues for the rest of this week. 

High temperatures will soar into the low 80s just about every single day this week. 

Mostly dry conditions will prevail this week, allowing for partly to mostly sunny skies. 

A break in the warm pattern doesn't appear to arrive until closer to this weekend and into early next week. 

Weekend forecast

Looking Ahead:

It's growing increasingly likely that next week will feature another round of weather whiplash as a late weekend cold front moves in. 

Saturday is expected to be the warmest day, with temperatures potentially reaching the mid-80s away from the beaches. Highs of 83 to 85 degrees are possible in a few inland locations, accompanied by a light south wind.

A cold front is expected to move through Florida on Sunday, Jan. 11, likely bringing increased cloud cover and a noticeable drop in temperatures but little to no rain or thunderstorms.

Behind the front, sunshine is expected to return early next week, with daytime highs mainly in the 60s.

No significant rain is forecast over the next seven to 10 days. There is a distant signal of a potential weather system around Jan. 15 or 16, though confidence remains low. Overall, the second half of January is expected to bring more opportunities for stronger cold fronts across Central Florida.
