Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Tampa Bay Ruskin FL 721 PM EST Mon Dec 9 2019

UPDATE. A generally quiet night is expected with temperatures cooling into the upper 50s to mid 60s by dawn. Tomorrow's weather will be very similar today, with a cool start to the day and a warm afternoon as highs climb into the low-to-mid 80s. The only concern overnight is the development of patchy fog. With fairly calm winds and high dewpoints, areas (particularly from Tampa Bay Southward) could see fog develop in the early morning hours. This should begin to clear once the sun rises.

As a front approaches our area late Tuesday night into Wednesday, stalls, and then advects back northward as a warm front, conditions will begin to deteriorate, with a rainier latter half of the week expected. Overall, the forecast remains on track and no significant changes have been made or are anticipated.

AVIATION. VFR conditions are expected to prevail, but lower ceilings,and mist are possible from 10Z onward through as late as 15Z with light and variable winds. As temperatures warm, ceilings will lift, and winds will become SSW in the afternoon.

Marine. Conditions remain fairly calm and quiet overnight. Some fog is possible in extreme northern coastal waters, but conditions do not look conducive for widespread fog. There is an increasing threat for sea fog tomorrow night for the Nature Coast extending down towards Tampa Bay ahead of a cold front. This front will move southward and then stall before moving back north mid-week. This will quickly eliminate the fog threat Wednesday into Thursday, but could cause seas to approach cautionary criteria.

If you are subject to CCPA, Google ads on this site will not be based on your past behavior so you will likely not see an ad for a lawn mower just because you looked for one at a big box website. I do not believe this site is subject to CCPA but I am doing what I can to follow the guidelines anyway. Disclaimer: The information on this web site has not been checked for accuracy. It is for entertainment purposes only and should be independently verified before using for any other reason. There are five sources. 1) Documents and manuals from a variety of sources. These have not been checked for accuracy and in many cases have not even been read by anyone associated with L-36.com. I have no idea of they are useful or accurate, I leave that to the reader. 2) Articles others have written and submitted. If you have questions on these, please contact the author. 3) Articles that represent my personal opinions. These are intended to promote thought and for entertainment. These are not intended to be fact, they are my opinions. 4) Small programs that generate result presented on a web page. Like any computer program, these may and in some cases do have errors. Almost all of these also make simplifying assumptions so they are not totally accurate even if there are no errors. Please verify all results. 5) Weather information is from numerious of sources and is presented automatically. It is not checked for accuracy either by anyone at L-36.com or by the source which is typically the US Government. See the NOAA web site for their disclaimer. Finally, tide and current data on this site is from 2007 and 2008 data bases, which may contain even older data. Changes in harbors due to building or dredging change tides and currents and for that reason many of the locations presented are no longer supported by newer data bases. For example, there is very little tidal current data in newer data bases so current data is likely wrong to some extent. This data is NOT FOR NAVIGATION. See the XTide disclaimer for details. In addition, tide and current are influenced by storms, river flow, and other factors beyond the ability of any predictive program.
