Dangerous ‘feels like’ temps prompt heat advisories in Central Florida

August 9, 2024

ORLANDO, Fla. – It’s going to be another scorcher of a day across all of Central Florida as temperatures soar above-average with dangerous “feels like” temperatures.

FRIDAY:

Heat advisories will be in effect for all counties Friday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. with heat indices exceeding 108 degrees for several hours.

Heat Advisory

By the afternoon, summer storms are expected to develop along the western half of the area with a gradual track toward the east coast into the evening. Latest models show the collision of sea breezes late afternoon and into the night east of I-4 toward I-95. Storm chances remain slightly below our summer average, at 40-50%.

WEEKEND-NEXT WEEK:

Additional moisture, tied with a stronger sea breeze collision will fuel the threat for more rain and storms in the afternoon.

Saturday expect coverage at 50% and Sunday with 60%.

Rain Chances Outlook

Temperatures remain consistently in the mid 90s with feels like temperatures running below 108.

Heat advisories could be issued for the weekend.
