Orlando weather today brings mostly sunny skies and a high near 80°F, with a refreshing north northeast wind around 10 mph gusting to 25 mph — a noticeable cooldown after a cold front pushed through early this morning.
The National Weather Service reports that while isolated showers lingered this morning as the front moved south, drier air is filtering in throughout the day. A few scattered showers may still develop across the Treasure Coast, but strong storms are not expected. If you’re heading to Disney World, Universal Orlando, or SeaWorld today, you’re looking at excellent theme park weather — mostly clear skies, comfortable temperatures, and just a 5% chance of rain. Bring sunscreen and stay hydrated, though the lower humidity will make it feel more pleasant than typical May afternoons.
For outdoor enthusiasts, conditions are ideal. Golfers should take advantage of the low precipitation chance — if you’re shopping for gear, check out the Best Golf Balls for High Handicappers in 2026: Tested, Ranked & Compared to improve your game. Fishing kayakers will appreciate the calm winds this afternoon; the Best Fishing Kayaks Under $1,000 in 2026 guide has solid options for exploring Central Florida’s lakes and springs. If you’re planning a backyard cookout around Lake Eustis or near the Orange County Convention Center, a portable propane grill will give you flexibility, and the wind will help keep smoke at bay.
Tonight into Monday: Expect mostly clear skies with lows around 64°F and light northeast winds. Monday looks even better — sunny with a high near 83°F, perfect for outdoor activities and sports events. However, allergy sufferers should note that May pollen counts remain elevated; consider an allergy relief nasal spray or pollen count face mask if you’re sensitive.
Looking ahead: The National Weather Service warns that another round of hot temperatures is expected by mid-week, with widespread low to mid 90s forecast Wednesday over the interior, expanding to all areas by Thursday. A cold front will push into the deep South Thursday and may bring scattered showers late week, so enjoy this cooler stretch while it lasts.
If you’re catching A Night With David Lee Roth at Hard Rock Live Orlando tonight or the Revival 250: America’s 250th Anniversary Revival Event at VyStar Veterans Memorial Arena this evening, you’ll have fantastic conditions for heading out — dry and mild.

For dinner tonight, consider a light grilled meal to take advantage of the pleasant evening. A simple grilled chicken with fresh vegetables pairs perfectly with this cooler weather. Need ingredients? You can order groceries on Amazon and have everything for tonight’s dinner delivered to your door.
Extended outlook: Monday remains sunny and pleasant. By Tuesday and Wednesday, expect rising heat and humidity as a ridge of high pressure settles over Central Florida — the calm before the potential storm threat late week.
