Record-high temperatures could be threatened over the next few days, namely in Leesburg, Sanford and Orlando, where highs will be within 1-3 degrees of the current records.

Even with the development of daily afternoon sea breezes, persistent dry air in the mid- to upper levels should prevent any rain activity from developing.

Spring breakers enjoying the beach this weekend, beware as a moderate to high risk of rip currents remains a concern. Boaters can expect fantastic conditions through Sunday!

We will finally see a shift in our upper-level pattern as our large ridge of high pressure finally breaks down and releases its warm grip across the Sunshine State. A broad upper low will dig further south, sending a strong cold front into Central Florida on Monday.

Along the front scattered to numerous showers (40-60%) and a few isolated thunderstorms will be possible. Some storms could be strong, but the severe threat remains low.

A much drier airmass builds back across the region behind the front on Tuesday, the official start of spring at 11:06 p.m. Northerly winds remain breezy with temperatures struggling to reach the 70-degree mark.

Wednesday morning is expected to be the coldest morning, with lows falling into the mid- to upper 40s across much of the area but remaining in the low 50s in Brevard.
