Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Tampa Bay Ruskin FL
1254 AM EST Thu Dec 29 2016

.AVIATION...
Some IFR/LIFR cigs/vsbys may impact the terminals through 12Z
this morning as areas of low stratus and fog affect the region.
Outside of the low clouds and fog VFR will prevail. VFR should
return to all sites after 15Z as the low clouds and fog burn
off. A cold front will move south through the region later this
afternoon. Some brief MVFR cigs/vsby will be possible with any
showers, however confidence and overall timing of the cigs/vsbys
are too low to include a mention at this time. Light and variable
winds this morning will become southwest to west around 10 knots
after 15Z. Winds will shift to the northwest after 00Z with speeds
increasing to 15 to 20 knots with higher gusts possible.

&&

.Prev Discussion... /issued 851 PM EST Wed Dec 28 2016/

FOR THE EVENING UPDATE...
Area of sea fog over the northern waters has expanded and spread
locally onshore. A dense fog advisory is in effect overnight for
the coastal areas of the nature coast where visibility will
frequently run less than a mile. The dense fog may spread further
south across Pinellas county after midnight. Mostly clear skies
tonight will also allow for good radiational cooling and
additional fog development over the remainder of west central and
southwest Florida by late tonight/early Thursday morning, with
locally dense fog possible.

Boundary layer winds across the northern and central waters will
shift to the southwest later tonight ahead of a cold front. This
will likely enhance the sea fog over the water...with the
onshore flow pushing the sea fog further inland mainly north of
Tampa.
