Orlando PM Weather Forecast: March 8, 2025

Clouds and sun on tap for Sunday with showers moving in Sunday night into your Monday morning commute. FOX 35 Meteorologist Laurel Blanchard has the latest on the timing of the rain.

ORLANDO, Fla. - Tonight's weather will feature partly-cloudy to mostly-cloudy skies, with temperatures remaining in the upper 50s and 60s. In some areas, a shower or two could be possible.

Where and when will the rain happen?

What we know:

A possible shower or two could hit the areas around Gainesville and Ocala. These splash and dash of showers are due to a frontal boundary passing to the north.

Cold front on the way

What To Expect:

A cold front will move in towards Central Florida from Sunday going into Monday.

Winds will pick up ahead of the cold front, popping our temperatures into the mid-80s Sunday afternoon, with mostly-cloudy skies throughout the day across the region.

Sunday will be by no means a washout, but some scattered showers and a few thunderstorms are expected. The severe threat is low, but there will be a chance of some thunderstorms in the line as the front passes through.

The rain will be ushered into the northwest parts of the viewing area (Gainesville/Ocala) late Sunday afternoon, with more widespread showers from Ocala to Daytona on Sunday night.

The main rain will be coming through on Sunday night and Monday.

The cold front brings a little bit of a temperature rollercoaster, with temperatures in the mid-70s and 80s on Sunday.

What will next week's weather look like?

What's next:

The cold front and showers move through early Monday during the morning commute, with showers tapering off by lunchtime.

Conditions will still be breezy, but skies will be mainly clear by Monday evening.

The temperature rollercoaster will continue on Monday, with lows in the 70s and 60s during the day and in the 40s and 50s at night.

However, the cool air will not stick around long. We are back into the 80s by the middle of the workweek, with plenty of sunshine!
