Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Tampa Bay Ruskin FL 116 PM EDT Wed May 14 2025
DISCUSSION
Troughing remains aloft over the eastern part of the country this afternoon while surface high pressure over the Atlantic extends westward over Florida. The upper-level trough will shift eastward over the next couple of days, with heights then rising over the region. Strong high pressure aloft will then take hold over the Gulf this weekend through next week, keeping above normal temperatures and low rain chances in the forecast.
AVIATION
(18Z TAFS)
VFR conditions are anticipated through the forecast period. Some patchy fog is forecast north of the terminals, so have not included mention in the TAFs at this time.
MARINE
Westerly flow will remain over the waters through today, then high pressure will lift north, leading to south and southeast winds for the central and southern waters through the weekend. No headlines are expected and rain chances remain low.
