Orlando Evening Weather: Rain Is Falling Now, Monday Is the Week's Wettest at 73 Percent, and Election Day's Thunderstorm Has Slid to Wednesday
The live feed read 72 degrees in rain showers early Sunday evening; Tuesday now carries a rain code at 57 percent instead of a thunderstorm, and the week's storm code belongs to Wednesday — with a dry, cooler Saturday behind it all.
Sunday is ending wet in Orlando. The station's live feed read 72 degrees, feeling like 75.8, under a rain-shower code early in the evening, closing a day that reached 84.7 with the precipitation chance at 69 percent and a low of 70.7 still to come. Anyone heading out tonight — including to the evening's Dia de los Muertos gathering on Semoran Boulevard — should expect the showers to be part of the evening, not a passing cell.
Monday remains the week's headline: a rain code, a high of only 77.6, a low of 68 and the precipitation chance up to 73 percent, the highest of the seven-day outlook. It is the last full day before the election, and it will be a wet one for final errands and outdoor events alike.
The Election Day change is the update that matters most. Tuesday's code has eased from thunderstorm to plain rain — a high of 82.1, a low of 69 and a 57 percent precipitation chance — while the thunderstorm code has slid a day later, to Wednesday, which reaches 85.7 at a 41 percent chance. Voters should still plan for rain on Tuesday, just not, on the current feed, storms. The week then dries out in a hurry: Thursday reaches the week's high of 87.4 at 11 percent, Friday runs 83.9 at 4 percent, and Saturday is clear at 81.3 with the week's coolest low, 63.3.
