Widespread Weekend Showers for Central Florida March 28th forecast

ON WASHINGTON STREET. ALL RIGHT. TIME TO GET A CHECK OF OUR FORECAST WITH CENTRAL FLORIDA’S CERTIFIED MOST ACCURATE FORECAST. FIRST METEOROLOGIST MARQUISE MEDA MARQUISE. BIG STORY TODAY WAS THE WARNING ABOUT THE BRUSH FIRE RISK. BECAUSE OF THE STRONG WINDS WE’VE GOT OUT THERE. YEAH, THEY’RE STILL HOWLING ACTUALLY COMING IN FROM THE EAST. THEY COULD BE SUSTAINED AROUND 20MPH, BUT THAT’S PRETTY MUCH THE ONLY THING YOU HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT AS WE TRANSITION OUT OF THE AFTERNOON AND INTO THE EVENING. STEW, THAT EASTERLY BREEZE YOU SEE ACROSS THE I-4 CORRIDOR OFF IN ORLANDO, 18 MILE PER HOUR SUSTAINED WINDS. KISSIMMEE, 21 MILE PER HOUR CONDITIONS. BUT OCCASIONALLY WE’LL GET THOSE GUSTS BETWEEN 25, MAYBE 30MPH. AND THAT’S WHAT WE SEE TOWARDS BREVARD COUNTY, RIGHT? 25 IN TITUSVILLE, 28 IN MELBOURNE, 29 MILE PER HOUR CONDITIONS ACROSS I-95. IF YOU ARE IN PALM BAY AND WE’VE SEEN THOSE WINDS IN ORLANDO AS WELL, TAKE YOU OUT TO DAYTONA, THOUGH, IT’S THE WINDS INCREASING YOUR IMPACTS FOR ANY RIP CURRENT RISKS THIS WEEKEND AS WE STAY DRY TONIGHT AND INTO SATURDAY. BUT OVER THE COURSE OF YOUR WEEKEND ON SUNDAY, INCREASED CHANCES FOR SHOWERS. THOSE WILL BE COMING BACK. THE RIP CURRENT RISK WILL STILL REMAIN IN PLACE, WITH A SOUTH AND EASTERLY FLOW, BUT AFTER THE RAIN DOES COME TO AN END, WE’LL LOOK AHEAD TO WARMER TEMPERATURES OVER THE COURSE OF YOUR UPCOMING WORK WEEK, WE’LL LIKELY BE RETURNING TO THE LOWER 90S AS YOU MOVE FURTHER INLAND. RIGHT NOW, THOUGH, TEMPERATURES ARE ALL IN THE 70S ACROSS CENTRAL FLORIDA. THE WARMEST PLACE TO BE THAT IS WINTER HAVEN OR TITUSVILLE. 79 DEGREES. ALSO OCALA 79 AS WELL ACROSS I-75. AND YOU’RE A LITTLE BIT DRIER OUT TOWARDS THE WEST, RIGHT. WE MENTIONED WE HAVE THAT EASTERLY WIND FLOW. SO WE’RE PICKING UP THE MOISTURE ALONG OUR ATLANTIC BEACHES. BUT AS YOU MOVE FURTHER INLAND, LOOKS LIKE YOU’RE DRYING OUT. AND THAT’S THE REASON WE’RE STILL CARRYING A RED FLAG WARNING UNTIL 7:00 FOR SUMTER. AND ALSO POLK COUNTY. THE COMBINATION OF THE WIND, THE DRY AIR IN PLACE, AND ALSO THE WARMTH THAT WE HAVE HERE IN CENTRAL FLORIDA ACROSS THE COASTLINE THIS WEEKEND FROM VOLUSIA ALL THE WAY DOWN TO BREVARD COUNTY. WE DO HAVE THE RIP CURRENT RISK WITH WAVE HEIGHTS BETWEEN TWO, MAYBE EVEN FOUR PLUS FEET. THOSE ARE THE WAVES CLOSEST TO THE SHORELINE. AND ON TOP OF THAT, YOU DO HAVE THE RIP CURRENT RISK. SO YOU WANT TO MAKE SURE YOU’RE PAYING CLOSE ATTENTION TO THE FLAG CONDITIONS OUTSIDE. NOT TOO MUCH TO WORRY ABOUT. NO RAIN HERE IN CENTRAL FLORIDA, BUT THAT WILL CHANGE OVER THE COURSE OF YOUR UPCOMING WEEKEND. TONIGHT THOUGH, JUST A FEW EXTRA CLOUDS AS TEMPERATURES SETTLE INTO THE UPPER 60S. BY 11 AND THE MID 60S AS YOU WAKE UP ON SATURDAY MORNING TO DRY CONDITIONS, YOU WON’T STAY DRY FOREVER WITH THAT SOUTHERLY WIND FLOW. WE’RE NOT ONLY JUST PICKING UP ATLANTIC MOISTURE, BUT ALSO SOME GULF COAST MOISTURE. BETTER CHANCE FOR RAIN THAT WILL BE PRESENT THROUGHOUT THE MORNING, AFTERNOON AND EVENTUALLY INTO THE EVENING ON SUNDAY, YOU SEE THIS WIDE SWATH OF GREEN RAIN SHOWERS ENCOMPASSING ALL OF OUR SUNSHINE STATE, AND SOME OF THOSE WILL LINGER AS WE HEAD INTO THE START OF YOUR UPCOMING WORK WEEK. WE DO HAVE A BIT OF A DEVIATION ACCORDING TO OUR MODELS. MORE RAIN TO THE SOUTH THOUGH. ON BOTH OF THESE, THE EUROPEAN AND THE GFS IN WHICH WE COULD SEE UPWARDS OF AN INCH AND WE CERTAINLY NEED IT AS OUR RAINFALL DEFICIT HERE IN ORLANDO IS FOUR PLUS INCHES. IN FACT, IT’S BEEN 32 DAYS SINCE WE’VE SEEN SIGNIFICANT RAIN ABOVE A QUARTER OF AN INCH. AND WE HAVE OUR FAIR SHARE OF FAIR SHOT AT THAT COMING UP ON SUNDAY, A COUPLE RAIN CHANCES DO LINGER ON MONDAY AND TUESDAY DRY AFTER THAT, THOUGH, HEADING INTO THE UPPER 80S AND LOWER 90S ON FRIDAY, AND EVEN ALONG THE COAST, YOU SEE THAT WARM AIR IS GOING TO STAY IN PLACE. YOU FINISH OFF YOUR WORKWEEK DRY THURSDAY AND FRIDAY, COMING UP WITH HIGHS IN THE MID 80S. AND I WILL SAY THE WEATHER CONDITIONS THI
