Scattered storms for Sunday Funday

ORLANDO, Fla. – Rain chances bump up slightly for Sunday as a little more moisture moves into Central Florida as a weak frontal boundary slides into the Southeast. We will begin our Sunday on the dry and sunny side, with the exception of spotty storms around Marion County. Showers will favor our northern counties for the late morning-early afternoon, with shower chances shifting southward as the day rolls on. Scattered storms push into the I-4 corridor and Orlando metro mid-afternoon. Storms will linger and favor areas east of I-4 to round out the day and into early evening. These storms will fade around 8pm. High temperatures will hit the mid 90s with heat indices around 105ºF.
