Orlando PM Weather Forecast: August 10, 2025

Scattered showers and thunderstorms across the region this evening as students and teachers are getting ready to head back to school. Meteorologist Laurel Blanchard has your back to school forecast!

The Brief

    • Storms will remain widespread this evening, especially between 5 and 10 p.m., with threats of torrential rain, flash flooding, gusty winds and lightning before tapering off overnight. 
    • Monday starts muggy and mostly dry, with highs in the low 90s and fewer, more isolated afternoon storms as high pressure builds. 
    • Lower rain chances through the week will allow temperatures to climb into the mid-90s, though a few showers remain possible.

ORLANDO, Fla. - Strong evening storms will bring heavy rain, flash flooding, and gusty winds to Central Florida before conditions gradually improve to start the work and school week.

What will the weather be like tonight?

What To Expect:

Storms will continue to fire up through the rest of the afternoon. Most of the widespread storms will be between 5 and 10 PM with storms slowly tapering off after that. With a LOT of moisture in the atmosphere, torrential rain and flash flooding are the main threats. Some storms tonight could pack a punch and become intense like what we have seen the past few nights. Other threats for the rest of the night were gusty winds and vivid lightning. 

Temperatures will cool down significantly if you do get caught in showers this evening.  Conditions will stay muggy through the night. Lows fall into the mid-70s.

What will the weather look like on Monday?

What's next:

School is back in session! For all the students and teachers headed back to the classroom, have a great school year! Monday morning starts off dry, but conditions will be muggy waiting at the bus stop as temperatures start off in the upper 70s with partly cloudy skies. Highs rise back into the lower 90s. We will see an area of high pressure build back in and this will finally limit our chances, allowing us to see not as many widespread storms and more sunshine in the afternoon.

We will still be seeing some sea breeze storms, just not as many at the start of the work and school week. Storms will pick up at about 2PM tomorrow, so heads up is you have any afterschool activities, you may want to pack the rain jacket as you head out the door, just in case. Storms will fizzle out in the early overnight hours, leaving mainly clear skies and muggy conditions Monday night. Lows will bottom out in the mid and upper 70s.

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

With the lower rain chances this week due to high pressure building in, temperatures will start to rise back in to the mid 90s.
