ORLANDO, Fla. — Central Florida is in for another beautiful day, with cool temperatures to start the morning and warm, mostly sunny conditions expected this afternoon.
However, changes are on the way as windy weather and dangerous surf are forecast to return to the area this weekend.
Daytime highs will climb into the upper 70s and low 80s under mostly sunny and dry skies, making for pleasant weather across the region.
But don’t get too comfortable with the calm conditions. Stronger winds are expected to return to Central Florida over the weekend, with the strongest gusts likely along the local beaches.
As winds pick up, ocean conditions will deteriorate, with waves expected to build to between 9 and 15 feet along the coastline.
The rough surf could create hazardous conditions for beachgoers and prompt additional coastal advisories from the National Weather Service over the next couple of days.
King tides combined with the high surf could also lead to minor coastal flooding in some coastal areas.
Beachgoers should keep a close eye on the forecast as the weekend approaches, stay out of dangerous surf and follow any advisories issued by local officials.
