8/26/2020 The 7 day forecast is taking about 5 seconds to load but it will eventually load. NOAA is still working on it. 8/18/2020 NOAA continues to have trouble. Wind guest will occasionally be left off graphs. I am working with NOAA to resolve the issue. 12/16/2019 NOAA is having trouble with requests that include wind gusts. I am posting graphs without wind gusts until it gets fixed. 10/9/2019 Updated the Marine Zones. 9/4/2019 Fixed the weather maps due to NOAA moving them. 7/25/2019 New feature in the Airports section gives a link to 5 minute updates for data reports. |

This boundary will settle over the waters during Saturday with another area of high pressure to the north building into the waters shifting winds to east northeast. Early next week winds will veer around to the south once again as the high to the north moves out into the western atlantic ocean.

Area Forecast Discussion . CORRECTED National Weather Service Tampa Bay Ruskin FL 257 PM EST Fri Jan 22 2021
DISCUSSION. Weakening cold front will sag south into the forecast area Saturday leading to abundant clouds and a few showers for areas from around Tampa Bay and the Interstate 4 corridor northward. The southwesterly flow out ahead of the boundary will continue to bring slightly warmer moister air into the region leading to areas of fog, some locally dense, late tonight into Saturday morning. During Saturday night and Sunday high pressure well to the north will bridge the boundary shifting winds to east to northeast bringing some slightly drier into the area, but this will be short lived as the high moves out into the western Atlantic Ocean early next week veering low level winds to a more southerly direction once again. The threat for late night/early morning fog will persist through midweek, then a stronger cold front is expected to move through Thursday bringing our next shot of cooler drier air to end the week.
Temperatures will remain near to a few degrees above normal this weekend, then a few to several degrees above normal for the first half of next work week before the next stronger cold front moves through late in the week.
AVIATION. Mainly VFR conditions are expected into early tonight, then some areas of MVFR/local IFR conditions could develop and continue through Saturday morning. Southwest winds at 7 to 11 knots will diminish and become light tonight.
MARINE. Weak high pressure will remain across the area early tonight with south to southwest winds across the waters. Some patchy to areas of sea fog could develop later tonight into Saturday as slightly warmer moister air spreads north ahead of a weakening cold front. This boundary will settle over the waters during Saturday with another area of high pressure to the north building into the waters shifting winds to east northeast. Early next week winds will veer around to the south once again as the high to the north moves out into the western Atlantic Ocean with the chance of more sea fog returning by Tuesday.
FIRE WEATHER. Relative humidity values will remain above critical levels through the weekend with dispersion values on the low side, especially Saturday.
