Weather around Orlando

From Orlando both coasts are close, and they often have different afternoons. The Atlantic beaches around Cocoa Beach and Daytona get an ocean breeze, while the Gulf side around Clearwater and Saint Pete Beach has its own, and inland stays the hottest.

In summer, afternoon thunderstorms are common across Central Florida, so a high rain chance can still leave a good morning. From late fall to spring the weather is at its steadiest, and the springs and lakes to the north are at their most comfortable.

How we pick

"Good" means a high from 55F to 88F, a forecast of sun or clouds, and at most a 30% chance of rain or snow, with no thunderstorm, dangerous heat or cold, strong gusts or smoke. "Mixed" means one day is good and the other isn't. Picks are ordered by that, then by the forecast and how much of a destination the town is.

Drive times start at the center of Orlando and go to the center of each town. They come from a table built on OpenStreetMap and do not include traffic or seasonal road closures.
