Orlando Sunday Weather Update: 82.8 Degrees by Mid-Morning, Monday Carries the Week's Heaviest Rain and Election Day Eases
Sunday is running hotter than the morning file had it — 82.8 degrees at cycle time on the way to 85.4 — while Monday firms up as the wettest day of the week and Tuesday's Election Day rain chance slips to 37 percent.
Orlando's Sunday warmed fast. The station's live feed put the city at 82.8 degrees by mid-morning, feeling like 84.1 under a mostly clear sky — up from 78.5 at the 07:27 file — on the way to a Sunday high of 85.4, with the day's low at 70 and its shower chance holding at 51 percent under a drizzle code. It is a hot, bright middle of the day with the rain risk weighted toward the afternoon pattern the code describes.
Monday is now the week's clear wet day. The feed codes Monday at 65 — heavy rain — with a high of just 77.7, a low of 68.3 and a precipitation chance of 56 percent, the highest of the seven days. Election Day Tuesday follows at code 63 with a high of 80.2 and a low of 69.5, and its precipitation chance has eased to 37 percent from the 47 percent the morning files carried — still a day to bring rain gear to the polls, but no longer the week's second-wettest slot. Wednesday recovers to 85.6 with a 39 percent chance.
The back of the week dries out and heats up. Thursday reaches 88.2 — the week's high mark — with only a 12 percent precipitation chance despite a shower code, Friday is coded clear at 86.2 with a 4 percent chance, and Saturday sits at 83.9 with a 5 percent chance. The shape of the week for Orlando is simple: a hot Sunday, a soaking Monday, a damp but improving Election Day, and then summer-like heat to close it out.
