ORLANDO, Fla. – The daytime temperatures on Sunday felt near 102 degrees, due to high humidity and lack of any cooling rain.
High temperatures will stay in the low 90s near the coast and the mid 90s inland. News 6 meteorologist Samara Cokinos said some scattered storms will move in by the afternoon, with rain coverage at 40 percent for inland zones and 20 to 30 percent in coastal areas.
"Staying hydrated is key to prevent heat-related illness that can happen fast in the summer heat," Cokinos said.
The boating forecast is clear, except for a storm that could move in and turn conditions on the water hazardous rather quickly. Lifeguards have issued warnings for strong rip currents along Central Florida beaches.
"Always swim safe and near a lifeguard," Cokinos said.
The areas that experience storms could see rain through the early evening, eventually leaving partly cloudy skies. News 6 meteorologist Danny Treanor said the temperature is predicted to stay warm and muggy into the evening, but will eventually drop down to the mid 70s.
Sunday and Monday are both predicted to bring a 40 percent chance of rain. Daytime temperatures will range from 94 degrees inland to 91 degrees near the coast.
"Grab your umbrella for the rest of the week, as rain chances jump back up to 60 percent," Treanor said.
Subtropical Storm Beryl is predicted to continue to weaken as it encounters colder water. The storm is currently moving slowly toward the northeast at 3 mph, and is located about 415 miles north of Bermuda.
