Issued at 233 AM EDT Tue May 14 2024
An active weather pattern continues as multiple rounds of showers and storms move through the area. Another MCS will slide across the northern Gulf and will likely be impacting our northern waters by morning. Current models are keeping the bulk of the convection with this round of storms mainly north of I4. However with the current dynamic setup, some storms could be severe with hail, damaging winds and a possible tornado. SPC currently has areas south to Sarasota county in a slight risk with the remaining areas of the CWA in a marginal risk.
Meanwhile as the MCS moves through today, an upper level trough continues to move across the Mississippi valley. The cold front associated with the trough will bring another round of showers and storms to our area beginning tonight and into tomorrow. Once again with increased instability, 500mb temps around -9/-10C, and a strong westerly flow, severe storms could be possible. Thus SPC, has placed the middle of the peninsula in a marginal risk. Primary threats will be hail and damaging winds.
Though ridging builds back over the area by the end of the week, enough moisture will be available that, rain chances remain in the forecast. By the weekend another cold front approaches the area bringing another round of convection. Hopefully with the multiple rounds of rain and storms, everyone's grass will once again be green.

Patchy MVFR CIGs this morning before mostly VFR conditions through the early afternoon hours, though flight conditions may deteriorate afterwards as a cluster of storms offshore approaches the area. There remains uncertainty with this activity and overall impacts but greatest precip chances will occur at Tampa Bay area terminals where VCTS has been added to KTPA/KPIE for possible restrictions. A lull in activity will occur tonight but another round of storms will move across the area Wednesday morning with additional restrictions possible.
