Tropical moisture trailing from Isaias will bring scattered thunderstorms to Central Florida on Saturday and Sunday. High temperatures on Saturday will reach the low 90s, with feels-like temperatures around or exceeding 100°F due to extremely humid conditions. Storms are expected to begin developing around noon, starting along the Interstate 75 corridor and southern Osceola county, with activity moving north towards the Orlando metro area around 2-3pm and continuing through the early evening.

While storms will not be as widespread or persistent as recent days, they will bring heavier rainfall and lightning. Wind will push storms from southwest to northeast. Tornado chances remain until 9pm in parts of Southeast Georgia and Northeast Florida, with severe thunderstorm warnings issued for parts of Clay, Saint Johns and Duval counties until at least 3:30pm. Thunderstorms should end by 11pm, though some rain may continue into early Sunday morning.

Sunday will see similar conditions, with scattered storms developing around noon and lingering into sunset, with highs in the upper 80s to low 90s. As Isaias moves into the Northeast by Monday morning, dry air will move into Central Florida, clearing rain chances and lowering humidity for the week ahead.
