Orlando Weather: Cooler Temps, Partly Cloudy Skies Ahead of 2025 Hurricane Season

Orlando welcomes cooler temperatures and partly cloudy skies as it approaches the 2025 hurricane season. Showers may occur, though severe storms are not expected. This week sees a return to typical summer storms, with the potential for Saharan dust affecting air quality.

Cooler weather arrives in Orlando as we head into the weekend, with partly cloudy skies expected as we approach the start of the 2025 hurricane season on Sunday. Following a rather active start to the weekend, conditions have settled down significantly as Saturday evening progresses. Expect partly cloudy skies tonight, with a drop in temperatures and humidity levels, thanks to some cooler air moving into the region.

Temperatures tonight will linger in the upper 60s to low 70s. A cold front that has pushed through appears to stall over southern Florida, keeping the possibility of some isolated showers or storms in play for the overnight hours and continuing into the weekend. However, forecasters agree there is a low risk for any severe weather, with any storms likely confined to areas south of Orlando—primarily impacting southern Brevard and Osceola counties.

As we gear up for June 1, marking the official start of hurricane season, rain chances remain minimal on Sunday. Anticipate only isolated showers or an occasional stray thunderstorm due to remnants of the cold front that lingered on Saturday. Highs are expected to return to the upper 80s beneath partly cloudy skies, with temperatures cooling back into the low 70s on Sunday night.

Moving into next week, the lingering cold front will continue to affect the weather into Monday, with a wave of energy that may bring showers and potential storms again in the afternoon. Typical afternoon seabreeze-driven thunderstorms are likely to make a comeback starting Tuesday, sticking around through much of the week.

High temperatures are expected to stay steady, reaching close to 90 degrees Fahrenheit, while lows will remain in the low 70s. Another weather phenomenon might be in store for us next week as Saharan dust sweeps across and off the coast of Africa. This could have ramifications for air quality, potentially affecting allergy sufferers and giving our skies a milky look. On the positive side, the dust can lead to vibrant sunrises and sunsets and is believed to help curb hurricane activity during the first week of June.

In summary, Orlando is projected to experience cooler temperatures and partly cloudy conditions as we start the 2025 hurricane season. While the potential for rain remains low, the presence of Saharan dust could also impact air quality. The typical afternoon thunderstorms return next week, as residents prepare for a warm and active summer ahead.
