OUTLOOK:

The extended outlook for Central Florida weather looks great. Dry skies and sunshine will continue through at least the start of the weekend. Longer-term forecast calls for a few showers around by late weekend into early next week.

TROPICS:

The FOX 35 STORM TEAM is currently tracking Tropical Storm Julia in the Southern Caribbean. The system is forecast to become a hurricane late Saturday or early Sunday before landfall in Central America, around Nicaragua, late this weekend. 

Damaging winds and heavy flooding will result as the system impacts land in the coming days. Outside of this system, the tropics remain quiet overall.
