ORLANDO, Fla. – After a chilly start Sunday, sunshine will help temperatures warm up quickly. Sunday is the transition day between the cooler Saturday and potentially record-breaking warmth in the days to come.
The week ahead will no doubt be the hottest of the year to date, and we could also see one of the earliest occurrences of 90-degree heat on record.

Highs Monday climb back to the 80s. By Tuesday and Wednesday, highs surge into the mid-to-upper 80s. Thursday and Friday will give Central Florida its best chance to reach 90 degrees for the first time since last October.
