ORLANDO, Fla. – A developing low over the northern Gulf will race northeast on Tuesday, dragging a cold front through Central Florida into the afternoon.
Ahead of that front, scattered showers and a few lightning storms will move through during the day, with most of the rain ending around sunset as activity shifts offshore. Any storms that develop will zip through the area quickly, producing lightning, strong wind gusts (40 to 55 mph) and brief bursts of heavy rain.

Temperatures remain warmer than normal, topping out in the low to mid-80s before the front arrives. Once it passes, overnight lows drop into the mid-50s north and west of I-4.
The middle of the week brings a quick little break. High pressure settles over the area through Friday, keeping conditions dry and comfortable.
Highs Wednesday will feel more seasonal, with temperatures in the low 70s near I-4 and the mid- to upper 70s southward, followed by a chilly night with lows dipping into the upper 40s to around 50 degrees.
A gradual warming trend sets in Thursday and continues into Friday, pushing highs into the upper 70s and low 80s by the end of the week.

Highs remain warm Saturday in the upper 70s to low 80s, then slide back into the 70s behind the front on Sunday.
