Storm chances on the rise through the week
ORLANDO, Fla. – All of Central Florida will be sunny and dry for Mother’s Day! With a few heating-of-the-day clouds, highs climb back to around 90 degrees.
Other than a stray downpour Monday, most of Central Florida will again be dry. Rain chances will only be at 20%.
Rain chances will be on the rise for the week ahead. By Tuesday storm chances increase to 30% in the afternoon. Afternoon storm chances rise to 40% Wednesday and 60% Thursday.
Highs will top out in the upper 80s and lower 90s over the next week.

Daytona Beach, Sanford and Melbourne are running anywhere from 2-4″ below normal, but additional improvement is likely through the week.
